For the 2nd year in a row, our Quiz Bowl team, led by our outstanding captain, Kirin Clay, won the National Thinking Cap Quiz Bowl. This contest combines knowledge and speed as teams answer 100 questions on current events, geography, sports, music, all academic disciplines and so much more. The faster they answer, the more points they score. Pictured are Jayden Guo, Morgan Jones, Caiden Shacreaw, Nevaeh Debrick and Kirin Clay. These are only a few of the students who were part of this winning team. Congratulations!
Top-performing Waynesboro FBLA learners recently represented us well at States in Hershey, PA, where over 5,000 FBLA students attended and competed in a variety of business-related events.
