Odyssey of the Mind State Competition


In April, Nicholas' Odyssey of the Mind team competed at the state level in Macon, GA - they place first again!!!!  Which means they are heading to the World Competition next month in Michigan!!
Practicing with their sling shot contraction - they had to build a contraption that would catapult their balsa wood structure  at least 15 feet and then place as much weight as possible on it (hoping it doesn't break in the toss)
The weight their structure withstood!
After their performance, the judges visit with the kids and ask many questions - they are wanting to see that the kids truly did everything themselves.
Queen of Angels sent 3 teams to state and all 3 advanced to worlds!!!  First time ever that has happened!
We are so proud of you Nicholas!
