Geography Bee Winners

On Thursday, December 4, Lawrence Intermediate School students participated in the National Geographic Geography Bee. This annual event is sponsored by the LIS PTO and the LIS Student Council. Students competed in three grade-level Bees where they answered oral questions on geography.
Our Geography Bee winners (L to R)
4th grade: Sonia Chakraborty
5th grade: Garrett Durso-Finley
6th grade: Ian Tseng

Congratulations to 6th grader, Ian Tseng, for being  LIS's overall Geography Bee Winner. Once Ian takes his written test, it will be sent off to the National Geographic Society for scoring.

Winners from each state will compete in the 27th National National Geographic Geography Bee in Washington DC in May 2015.

Great job to our students and many thanks to Ms. Tarasov and Ms. Stubbs for coordinating the Bee.
