6th Grade Academic Team Competes Saturday in Henderson
The 6th grade Academic Team competed Saturday in Henderson. It was a full day of testing and Quick Recall! Co-Captains Anna Caroline Brake and Will Shelton led the Quick Recall team through three hard fought rounds of competition. Unfortunately they did not make it to the finals but we could not be more proud of their efforts.
Mrs. Watson and Ms. Epperson did a fantastic job this year of leading the team and we can all be very proud of how well the Owensboro 5-6 Center was represented this weekend!
A big shout out to SkyMasters Mary Katherine, Alec, and Hayden who are members of the academic team!
