Schedule for the Day

Welcome 8:45am-9:00am

Lunch 11:00am-12:00pm
PICK & DROP Finals 12:00pm-2:00pm

We hope to accelerate the flow of the events by scripting the first two for everyone. At 9:00am all the 3-5 grades will participate in the MATH event while the 6-12 grades will participate in the SCIENCE event. After those are completed we will swap to let grades 3-5 participate in the SCIENCE event while grades 6-12 participate in the MATH event. By 9:25am everyone should have finished 2 stations and will have an hour and a half to complete the other 3. The “PICK & DROP” robotics event will begin after the scripted start at 9:30am. Students that are participating in the robotics event should finish other events but must check in regularly to make sure they don’t miss their match times.
STEM PRIZES. 1st-3rd place in each event is awarded STEM POINTS that can be spent in our STEM STORE for very cool science & engineering kits, drones, robots, telescopes, chemistry kits, etc.
