Media Advisory - Scholar Bowl 2012 Matchups

WHAT:
The Scholar Bowl 2012 is set to begin January 6, 2012 and continue into March. Scholar Bowl is an academic, jeopardy-like game that challenges students' memory and knowledge in the four core subjects of science, mathematics, English and social studies.

The teams consist of seventh- and eighth-graders working together to solve problems in a relaxed, yet competitive, setting. This is the most fun and intellectual challenge a scholar in middle school will experience. Members of the Scholar Bowl teams must make a commitment to participate in weekly practices, matches and tournaments.

The Scholar Bowl is made up of six divisions with four or five schools competing in each.

The winning schools from each division will move forward to compete against one another in the district championship play-offs.
