Odyssey of the Mind Competition

Two of our classmates participated in the Odyssey of the Mind, Pet Project Competition recently. "Odyssey of the Mind is an international educational program that provides creative problem-solving opportunities  for students from kindergarten through college. Team members apply their creativity to solve problems that range from building mechanical devices to presenting their own interpretation of literary classics. They then bring their solutions to competition on the local, state, and World level. Thousands of teams from throughout the U.S. and from about 25 other countries participate in the program."
