St. Mary Catholic Community School’s Academic Team recently competed in the Junior Academic Super Bowl Area Competition at Pierce Middle School. This year’s theme was The End of the Second Millennium: The 1980s and 1990s, and the students studied the presidencies, natural disasters, and scientific advancements of the time period.
First year competitor Dani Fleming said, “it was a great learning experience,” and eighth grader Kailana Urbanek said, “The experience was really fun, and I felt like I learned a lot about the 1980s and 1990s!” The English, math, science, social studies, and interdisciplinary teams took first place in their class at the regional level. The science team placed #4 in the entire state of Indiana!
