Two Mon Valley high schools will be part of a regional science competition today.
The Southwestern Pennsylvania Regional Science Olympiad will be held in the Convocation Center at California University of Pennsylvania.
Fifty-seven teams, including Ringgold and Elizabeth Forward high schools, will compete in this year’s event. Teams are made up of middle and high school students from 13 counties.
Each fall, Science Olympiad releases new rules and teams tackle the 23 STEM-aligned events in pairs, building devices for on-site testing, studying for core knowledge challenges and preparing for rigorous hands-on lab experiments.
