Our 6th grade Academic Pentathlon team did an outstanding job at the Orange County competition!
After months of preparation, studying, and practice sessions, and their hard work paid off with incredible results:
* 1st and 2nd place in Math
* 1st and 3rd place in Science
* 2nd and 4th place in Social Science
* 4th place in Fine Arts
* 3rd place in the Super Quiz as a team
* 5th place overall as a team
Preparing for Academic Pentathlon is no small task — it takes dedication, discipline, and a lot of teamwork. Our students met weekly to study, review material, and sharpen their test-taking and critical thinking skills.
This success wouldn’t have been possible without our dedicated coaches: Ms. Hosband – Math Mrs. Rider – Science Mrs. Hendricks – Social Science Ms. Herrera – Language Arts
And a special thank you to Mrs. Alina for coordinating every step of the way.
