Science Olympiad is Coming Soon!

Mr. Poole will be sending details home very soon about joining the Evansdale Science Olympiad Team.  If you think your child (in 3rd-5th grade) would be interested in joining, check out these free training sessions at Fernbank starting this weekend!  These sessions would be a great way to get a peak into what the event includes and to prepare if your child would like to join the Evansdale team.  This first session is THIS Saturday with two sessions featuring other activities later this month.  All the details appear below:
