Sci-Mathalon

Our project pits 12 schools against each other in a battle of sci-math prowess. The first round of competition will be a test round. Each school must select one student to compete for each of the 7 subjects covered. Those seven student will be their team for the competition. After the test round, The 6 schools with the highest test averages will advance to round 2 (the individual winners of each category will be recognized so even if their school does not advance, they are awarded for their achievement). Round two will be a tournament bowl with the three advancing teams moving to round 3. Round three will have one question per subject that each competitor in that subject will need to answer. The first student to answer correctly wins the points for their team. In the event of a tie, there will be a tie breaker question relating to science and math history (e.g. Describe the first atomic model.)
