Science Olympiad is an organization with a goal to make different areas of science fun and interesting in various ways. Its competitions are like academic track meets, consisting of a series of 23 team events in which schools compete against each other. At NGHS, we attend 3-4 competitions every year, all of which are day-long events. 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. More information about different events can be found under our Resources page. By combining events from all disciplines, Science Olympiad encourages a wide cross-section of students to get involved with emphasis placed on active, hands-on group participation. Through Science Olympiad, students, teachers, parents, principals and business leaders bond together and work toward a shared goal.
