Our Lisle High School Science Olympiad team also had a tremendous showing at the competition on March 12th, earning a bid to the State Competition by placing 5th overall among a very competitive pool of local schools. Teams of two to three students competed in different events that ranged from building robots to entomology to code-breaking. We are proud to share that Lisle students earned medals in 13 of the 23 events held, with Richard Arechar and Ryan Sims earning First Place in the Robot Tournament.
