What is Science Olympiad? It is the nation’s premiere MS & HS science competition! It is like an academic track meet. Each team of 15 will prepare to compete in Science Olympiad tournaments held on local, state and national levels. These inter-scholastic competitions consist of a series of 23 individual and team events that encourage learning in biology, earth science, chemistry, physics, problem solving and technology. Events in the Science Olympiad have been designed to recognize the wide variety of skills that students possess. While some events require knowledge of scientific facts and concepts, others rely on science processes, skills or applications. The Regional Competition is held in March, each year.
