Bemis Junior High School students clearly found the right solution to take top spots at a countywide chemistry competition.
Bemis students took a sweep of the first four spots at the Macomb County "You Be The Chemist" Science competition.
Gabby Timm placed first, John-Paul Murray second, Kaela Burger third and Azra Jakupovic fourth at the March 19 competition.
Timm, Murray and Burger will all compete at the state level, which will be held at the end of April.
You Be the Chemist is a fun and innovative academic competition that engages grade 5-8 students in learning about important chemistry concepts, scientific discoveries, and laboratory safety.
Challenge competitions are exciting events that take place across the country, encouraging the collaboration of industry members, schools, and community organizations, as together, they educate students about the value of science education and the role of chemistry in their everyday lives.
Other Bemis students participating include Adona Yu, Crystal Schultz, Justin Thomas, Griffin Drouin, Carly Graham and Josh Urquhart.
The club sponsor is Jean Martin, Bemis science teacher.
