Description
Welcome to the 2024 Fox Homeschoolers Science Olympiad Team!
YOUR CHILD SHOULD BE AGED 11-17 ON SEPT. 1st TO REGISTER.
Depending on availability of competitions, our teams may do a combination of virtual and in-person invitational (practice) competitions both in IL and in other states. Out of state competitions are not a requirement for any family, but please let us know so that we can adjust accordingly. Our big competition is Regionals either the last weekend of February or the first two weekends of March, and our State competition (assuming we advance from Regionals) is in mid to late April at University of IL Champaign-Urbana. Traditionally all students participate in anywhere from 3-6 competitions in any given year and this usually includes Regional and State competition.
Our middle schoolers (Div. B) will meet weekly on Monday afternoons for at least the fall semester (starting Mon. Sept. 18th) in north Naperville. High school students (Div. C) and parents will meet 1-2 times each month on a Friday evening starting Friday, Sept. 22, 2023 in north Naperville. Middle school students are welcome to join us on Friday nights to socialize or connect with teammates. We do not do team meetings the night before a competition, so our Friday night meeting schedule is contingent upon our final competition schedule. You can review more information about our team at: https://ilhomeschoolso.weebly.com/
REGISTRATION IS OPEN! Kickoff potluck picnic will be Friday, Sept. 15, 2023.
