Beyond the medals, what truly stood out was the camaraderie and sportsmanship our students displayed. The sincere hugs at the end of each event, the excitement shared in another team’s success, the resiliency shown after a stumble, and the joy with which they discussed their events. These little moments captured the essence of our students' incredible teamwork and enthusiasm.

Congratulations to all our talented scientists, supportive parents, and dedicated coaches. We are incredibly proud of your achievements and the way you represented our school. Your hard work, resiliency, and spirit have set a wonderful example for everyone. We look forward to seeing what incredible successes next year brings!
