Science Olympiad

Mr. Danley is the Club sponsor. Meetings are held on Wednesdays from 3-3:45PM. In grades 6-8, Science Olympiad functions much like a football or soccer team, requiring preparation, commitment, coaching and practice throughout the year. Each school-based team is allowed to bring 15 students who cross-train for a variety of events in their skill set. Our club time at Scott is used to prepare students for competitions held in the spring.

Science Olympiad competitions are like academic track meets, consisting of a series of 23 team events in each division (Division B is middle school; Division C is high school). Each year, a portion of the events are rotated to reflect the ever-changing nature of genetics, earth science, chemistry, anatomy, physics, geology, mechanical engineering and technology. By combining events from all disciplines, Science Olympiad encourages a wide cross-section of students to get involved. Emphasis is placed on active, hands-on group participation.

Middle School students compete in the B division, please click this link for a list of B-Division events and some information about the SCI O Events your child could be involved in. Contact Mr. Danley (mdanley@lps.org) with any questions!
