The Science Olympiad Club prepares students for the regional and state Science Olympiad Competition. Students should have an interest in all areas of science. Students will be actively engaged in learning and building projects during the Fall and Winter months so that they can compete at the regional Science Olympiad competition in the Spring. Students will work independently with the help of their advisers to problem-solve, complete projects, and gain new science knowledge in areas of their interest. Students should also expect to meet once a week during after school hours to build projects and prepare for the competition.
