My Project

We joined our first ever regional science bowl competition last year! Science Bowl is a highly competitive event where high school students from different schools compete in a fast-paced verbal forum where students get to solve and answer questions in all branches of science and math. Our team was at a disadvantage as we didn't have a buzzer system to practice with. Nonetheless, we were able to win a few events. Our students were honored to participate in such a great event where we get to celebrate and show our skills in math and science.

Having our own buzzer system can help prepare our students for the next science bowl competition.

Our students were so excited to prepare for this year's competition and we hope to continue inspiring future students to join as well. This buzzer system can also be used in my Precalculus, Algebra 1 and AP Physics class. Please help support our Science Bowl Club at ECHS.
