40th Annual San Joaquin County Science Olympiad Division A Results

Students from 36 schools, including charter and private schools, participated in the 40th Annual San Joaquin County Science Olympiad Competition for Division A (third grade through sixth grade). In all, 50 teams from throughout the county participated in the one-day competition held at McNair High School on Saturday, March 7. 

Science Olympiad tournaments are rigorous academic interscholastic competitions that consist of a series of individual and team events for which students prepare during the year. The competitions follow the format of popular board games, TV shows, and athletic games. These challenging and motivational events are well-balanced between the various science disciplines of biology, earth science, chemistry, physics, computers, and technology. Events require knowledge of science facts, concepts, processes, skills, or science applications.
