As one of the largest clubs at Manual, Science Olympiad is a fantastic opportunity for anyone interested in biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, and more! Science Olympiad competitions consist of a series of 23 partner-based events that rotate to reflect the ever-changing nature of science, engineering, and technology. Check out soinc.org to find out more about the current year's events. 

 

Manual Science Olympiad operates like a cohesive team despite its size. Although we hold tryouts to determine individual skill levels, we accept ALL students who are interested into the club. Every member attends at least one competition during the season. Most attend more, and we go on multiple fun trips to invitationals in other states. Science Olympiad requires a lot of preparation and commitment throughout the year. However, newer members can always find experienced officers and members willing to give advice. Additionally, since all events require working with a partner, Science Olympiad is an incredible opportunity to make new friends. Our team has an extremely strong record, placing 1st at State for the past three years and going on to compete at the annual National Tournament hosted by universities across the country. 

​

By combining events from all disciplines, Science Olympiad encourages a wide cross-section of students to get involved. Through Science Olympiad, students bond together and develop skills and interests that often help them succeed in STEM careers. For interested middle schoolers and rising freshmen, we also host Science Olympiad Summer Camp, a week-long introduction to STEM with engaging activities and a mini-competition!
