A group from Paul Laurence Dunbar High School will represent the Kentucky / Ohio / Indiana region in the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Science Bowl.
During the April 25 - 29 activities in Washington, D.C., the students will compete against nearly 70 top teams from around the country.
The team, which won the regional championship, consists of Chloe Cao, Ryan Blood, Valerie Sarge, Joseph Schneider and John Stokes. If Dunbar finishes in the top 16 nationally, the school’s science department will receive $1,000.
“We are working hard to prepare, and they are actually quite good. The representatives from Washington who were at regionals were extremely impressed, not just with their knowledge but their attitudes, too. One moderator remarked that they were the ‘most refreshing group of young people he had met,’” said Dunbar adviser Susan Magendanz.
