Abe Schwartzrock lead the W-W. academic team in the Academic Challenge held at Miller on February 4. Students were ranked 1-10 out of 16 placements in 24 different categories.  Mrs. Rainford and Mrs. Fauth accompanied the eighteen representatives to the challenge which ran most of the day.  

Abe received a gold medal for his performance in geometry, a silver in chemistry, and a bronze in world history.

Other medal winners included: Spencer Chase, gold in sports; Rebecca Runge, silver in grammar II;

Robbie Gasgoigne, bronze in art; Sawyer Langbehn, bronze in algebra II. 

The team didn’t stop there!  They took home 17 more places to round out a very successful trip.

Tessia Black said, “It was really challenging and I would participate in it again.”

Patrick Eggleston noted that along with the challenge, a quiz bowl was held. He stated, “We should be in the quiz bowl next year.” Several other participants nodded their heads in agreement.
