Science Olympiad is an academic team of 15 that competes in 23
events. Each team member competes with a partner in 3 events. We
spend our year preparing for our regional competition in March.
Events include build events such as Gravity Vehicle where a car
goes down a ramp and stops on a spot and study events in
topics such as circuits, forensics, earth mapping, and fossils.
Students get to dive deeper into topics that they may have
studied in classes and some topics that don’t get taught at the
high school level. LEARN MORE
Meetings are on Fridays from 3:15 to 4:30pm.
Students are expected to study and work on their build event in
between meetings also independently. There is also one required
Saturday meeting per semester. Informational meetings will be
held on Tuesdays Aug 20 and 27 at lunch in Room 343. Our first
official meeting is Friday Sept 6 after school. If you have
questions, email Mrs.MacDonald at jmacdonald@stfrancishs.org.
Parents, If you have engineering or medical expertise that you
could share and can make the Friday meetings, we would love to
have you!
