Sponsored by Irvine Public Schools Foundations, in partnership with Broadcom Foundation, annually, this event prepares 6-12 grade students for their science fair project. During Ask-A-Scientist Night, students are able to ask scientists, engineers, and STEM professionals questions and get advice about their ideas for their science fair project.
Please see the flier for more information.
After many months of diligent online preparation, two Vista Verde middle school teams participated in the online Orange County Regional Science Olympiad tournament. Science Olympiad is a national STEM competition in which school teams of 15 middle schoolers compete in 23 advanced science events from rotating scientific fields and disciplines, such as Anatomy & Physiology, Circuits, Engineering, Chemistry, Earth Science, Crime Lab Forensics, Code Breaking, and more. Vista Verde placed 7th in Orange County Regionals and is among the top schools advancing to the online state tournament on April 3rd! Congratulations Vikings!!!
Thank you VV PTA Academic Enrichment for all for your support and a big thank you to all the volunteer parents and VV student alumni who have helped coach our Vista Verde teams to success!
Calling all future scientists and engineers! Are you interested in joining the 2019-2020 Vista Verde Middle school Science Olympiad team? This is a team competition for 6-8th graders. Team selection and preparations will start in August. Students will be competing in invitational(s) December and January. The top 15 students will compete in the February regional competition.
We also need parent volunteers with interest in this year’s Science Olympiad topics to help guide and share their knowledge with team members.
