Third, fourth and fifth grade students competed in the annual Geography Bowl competition this winter, sharing and showing their knowledge against their peers.
Geography Bowl is an enrichment program where interested students study continents, countries, capital cities and geographical features of our world culminating in a Jeopardy type quiz bowl competition. The goal is to challenge and motivate children to research and learn more about the world where they live and celebrate that learning with a fun quiz bowl.
