In a historic moment for our school, we were honored with the Harold C. Shaw Memorial Outstanding School Award—the highest school and team recognition at State Science Day. This distinguished award celebrates a combination of high student participation and exceptional project quality.

Ms. Hicks expressed her immense pride in the students and mentors for earning this well-deserved accolade. A trophy commemorating this achievement will be presented to our school this fall.

We also include the official press release from the Ohio Academy of Science highlighting this significant honor.
