]]> A bad actor has infested local crops with aphids! We need all STEM Olympiad teams to save the day! The STEM Olympiad is an event where 7th and 8th grade students work through different scenarios to help create a solution to save crops from this bad actor. They will think scientifically and problem-solve as they rotate through the Cyber/CS station, Math station, Science/Biology station, and the Public Speaking/Marketing station. Prior to the event, team members will collaborate to develop a proposal and “shark tank” pitch that they will promote during the public speaking and marketing rotation. Their pitches will be judged on accuracy of research, creativity, innovation, and presentation of ideas. All other rotations will occur in real-time on ÍøºìºÚÁÏ campus on October 15, 2026. Local STEM/agricultural professionals will also present information about career pathways into their fields. Additionally, different academic programs featured at ÍøºìºÚÁÏ, especially in STEM/agriculture, education, cyber, and psychology will be highlighted.
