Geographic Bee Winner

3/13/2018

 
St. Isaac Jogues School Geographic Bee Hinsdale Illinois
Alexander H. (Gr. 8) won the school level competition of St. Isaac Jogues' National Geographic Bee. Alexander took a qualifying test from the National Geographic Society, and will now be advancing to the 30th Illinois State Geographic Bee.  This event will take place on April 12th  at Illinois State University. Approximately 3 million students in almost 10,000 schools across the country took the qualifying test. In Illinois, only about 100 students were selected, and Alexander was one of them!  If Alexander wins at the state level competition, the National Geographic Society will provide him with an all-expense-paid trip to Washington, D.C. to compete in the national championship in May.  The first-place national champion will receive a $50,000 college scholarship, a lifetime membership to the National Geographic Society, and a trip to the Galapagos Islands!  Congratulations to Alexander! We wish him the best of luck in the State Competition!

Last fall, SIJ students in grades 4-8 competed in a classroom level competition, from which 10 finalists were selected to advance to the all-school competition. The 10 finalists were:  Alexander H. (Gr. 8), Grace R. (Gr. 8), Caroline K. (Gr. 7), Jack R. (Gr. 7), Brennan W. (Gr. 6), John H. (Gr. 6), Finn R. (Gr. 5), John G. (Gr. 5), Caroline S. (Gr. 4), and Allie G. (Gr. 4).
