- 12. Science Olympiad isa lot of work – why do you do it? I like my students to be able to show how much they have learned They learn to work together as a team It helps the students learn to organize their time The students really enjoy it. They have a lot of fun and learn in the process I attended as a parent a few years ago and saw the excitement in the kids and that got me hooked

It is a positive activity for youth that promotes education, self-motivation and commitment Anything we can do to increase a student ’s commitment to learning science will pay off in the future It helps kids think about careers in science when America is producing fewer and fewer scientists
