The Pattonsburg High School Science Olympiad team has accomplished a first for their school.
On Feb. 8, six Pattonsburg R-2 students made their way to North Central Missouri College in Trenton to compete in the High School Science Olympiad. Team members present were senior, Clark Adler; junior, Miles Huff; sophomores Quincy Crone, Jaden Gannan, Ryelin Hulet, and Jillian Plymell. Three other members, juniors Lillian Carter, Kyle McChesney, and Sofia Nunn, were unable to compete.
Coach and science teacher, Tuanette Hulet is extremely proud to announce that the team collectively accomplished a first for the school—the event qualified the entire high school team present by earning a first place for every student there, in three separate competition events.
Senior Clark Adler has been a team member for all six years, and this is his third year going to state. This is junior Mile Huff’s third year competing, and his second year going to state. New-recruit, sophomore Jade Gannan, competed for the first time and is going to state for her first time. Sophomores Quincy Crone, Jillian Plymell, and Ryelin Hulet experienced their fourth year of competing and their fourth consecutive year going to state. These three have simultaneously set a new school record for the most consecutive times any student has ever made it to State Science Olympiad in the history of the Pattonsburg High School.
