Saline High School Science Olympiad Qualifies for States, Saline Middle School Team 3rd at Regionals

The Saline High School Science Olympiad Team edged out Huron High School for second place to qualify for States in the 2023 Science Olympiad Regionals hosted by the University of Michigan on March 18. 

The Saline Middle School Science Olympiad came in third place, just missing qualifying. The top two teams in the regional competition received an automatic invitation to the State competition. However, under a new rule introduced this year, Olympians who placed first in their event also received an invitation, even if their overall team did not. Therefore, seven Saline Middle School team members who came in first in their events will also be able to compete in the State competition.

The State of Michigan Science Olympiad competition is on April 22, at Michigan State University.
