DOE established the National Science Bowl® in 1991 to encourage students in science and math. This year’s competition began in January with more 10,000 students participating in regional contests.
The finals kicked off with 68 high school and 47 middle school regional champions and concluded at Lisner Auditorium on the George Washington University campus, where Deputy Secretary Turk presented the top three high school and middle school teams with their trophies.
“Congratulations to the students from Lexington High School and BASIS Independent Bellevue on winning this year’s National Science Bowl®. This accomplishment required scientific curiosity and collaboration-I am excited and hopeful to see these brilliant scientists hone these skills in DOE’s National Labs one day,” said U.S. Deputy Secretary of Energy David M. Turk. “The country needs young scientists, like all the finalists in today’s competition, to help solve our world’s toughest challenges. The United States leads the globe in scientific breakthroughs, and we will only continue to do so by investing in the next generation of innovative leaders.”
