Cheers to our Upper School (US) Odyssey of the Mind Team, which recently competed in a regional tournament and earned entry to the State Finals. Odyssey of the Mind, a student-led competition, bridges STEAM and the performing arts. The team took first place in the tourney’s “Spontaneous” event, where they had seven minutes to collaborate and solve a surprise critical thinking challenge. In the “Style” event, the team earned the highest score in their division, highlighted by a hand-sewn costume and sophisticated viola, keyboard, and vocal trio performance. In the “Long-Term Problem Performance” event, Colleen Larionoff, Innovation Coordinator/ faculty advisor noted, “The team displayed immense grace, perseverance, and accountability. Their ability to support one another despite technical setbacks earned high praise from the judges and was a true testament to their character.” Special shoutout also to Head of School Dr. CW for joining as a team chaperone! To the entire team: good luck at States!
