Upper School Academic Team success at Regionals

The Upper School Academic Team competed in the Governor’s Cup Regional Tournament on February 18 and placed 3rd Overall for Region 7. 

Overall team awards are earned by cumulative scores from Quick Recall, Future Problem Solvers, and written assessment performance. On top of the team’s 3rd place title, the Bearcats earned the Hume Sportsmanship award, which is given to the team that exhibits exceptional ethics, decorum, and sportsmanship during competition. 

Additionally, the Future Problem Solving Team earned 1st place in their respective event, and are the Region 7 Champions!
