RESULTS
Congratulations to all of the Academic Super Bowl teams for a great Regional competition on Tuesday evening! All five teams did a great job with some really difficult questions about Canada.The BIG news is that our Fine Arts Team is GOING TO STATE FINALS! This is amazing, especially considering the team is made up of two students. Kudos to junior Cassie Fields and sophomore Nele Kuepper for qualifying for State and tying for 3rd place in the Regional meet out of 42 schools in our class. Mr. Axsiom is the Fine Arts coach. Way to go all Academic Bowl students, and good luck to Cassie and Nele as they compete in the state finals on May 7.
