My Project

This is our school's second year participating in Science Olympiad and we're so excited to be expanding our event participation! Our students are incredibly invested in the STEM events offered by the competition, but we need supplies to get started.

One of the events our team is participating in relates to robotics, but we need specific supplies to build the required device.

We are also in need of study materials for various test-taking events including textbooks, field manuals, and models.

We greatly appreciate your support of our growing program as we invite students to embrace their love of science and expand their knowledge in different STEM topics!
