The 14th year of Bay Area Elementary Science Olympiad successfully completed on Saturday, April 10th, 2021 in a virtual format. The event was conducted under the auspices of a local non-profit organization, Science Gurus, which acts as a mentor platform for youth in STEM fields. 24 teams competed in 9 different events in various topics from Ecology to Straw Tower, which engaged the young minds to learn science concepts. The enthusiastic elementary school students answered many tough questions that were beyond their grade level. A big thanks to all the teams, coaches, and judges who helped run the event successfully.
The virtual format was feasible using zoom features such as break out rooms. We had to enlist a lot more judges to make this happen and thank all of the high school, college, and adult judges who helped with the event.
The final results are posted below.
