Please congratulate our Science Olympiad Team. Approximately 40 teams from 4 states attended the competition this weekend and our team did great.  In addition to their medals, our Robinson students impressed the leaders of the tournament by their work ethic. The tournament leaders told our sponsors that they were the most friendly, polite, respectful and considerate individuals that they worked with all day. When the leaders saw the Robinson t-shirts they knew they would have a great interaction with the team members. Kudos also to Senior Miles Lane who stepped forward during the awards event to ask an insightful and spot-on question about our environment of the key-note speaker, former EPA Administrator  Catherine McCabe.  Our Sponsors, Jenn Holder and Juliana Stroup could not be more proud of how Robinson was represented this weekend.

Individual medalists place among the top 6:

Circuit Lab – Owen Schwartz and Ryan Keller – 5^th place

Fossils – Mahreen Ahmed  & Jeanne Seanor  (an impressive last minute substitution and 1 week to study!) – 6^th place

Mission Possible – Owen Schwartz & Sophia Gospodinov – 1^st place with 7 MacGyver like actions and a sky high score!

Wright Stuff – Jason Yao and Rea Yoza – 3^rd place

Water Quality – Jeyi Lee & Sophia Gospodinov – 6^th place

We start the new year off January 12^th with another competition, so back to the grindstone for these kids.
