What is Science Olympiad?

Students tell us "it is what makes school fun," coaches report that SO has "transformed their teaching and made it much more enjoyable and rewarding," administrators have indicated that SO teams at their schools have had a "tremendous positive effect on student learning." Science Olympiad offers opportunities for students to explore many areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. It is the only competition in the US that offers a team learning environment that stretches across many areas of science and engages students of different knowledge and skill sets. Science Olympiad offers creative challenges to all students in interesting and applied areas of science which they typically don't experience in the standard curriculum. All of the SO events are closely tied to National Science Education Standards, so these events offer exciting and creative ways for teachers and students to engage in science education in K-12 schools.
