Middle School Science Olympiad Makes Great Showing

The Middle School team has received its results from the regional competition and were quite successful! 
 
Regional competition was divided into two different sessions. On February 5th the virtual portion of the competition was held on campus at O’Neal and consisted of tests on different subjects. 

Some segments required the design, construction and performance of an experiment or a car to roll down a ramp and reach a specific distance. For these segments the team traveled Fayetteville Technical Community College on February 26th to test these devices they had previously built, in person. These devices included elastic band-powered planes, bridges, bottle rockets, and catapults. Congratulations to both the JV and Varsity Teams:
