On Saturday, April 27, Brownell Talbot's Middle and Upper School Science Olympiad teams competed at the 38th Nebraska State Science Olympiad competition in Lincoln.
The Upper School team finished 10th place over all and brought home several medals.
The Middle School team finished 1st place in their division, which means they are headed to Nationals! The 40th Science Olympiad National Competition is May 24-25 hosted by Michigan State University and the students are beyond excited! Only one middle school team from Nebraska is invited to move on to join other teams from around the country. The team will travel with Mrs. Harms, Ms. Diehl, and Mr. Sauer.
