Yes, It’s time to start the 2016-17 edition of the Oklahoma Science Olympiad.

1st – Start by enrolling your team(s) in the Science Olympiad.  This year we are waiving the state fee for Science Olympiad membership.  That will reduce the cost of annual membership to $60, which is the national Science Olympiad fee.  Remember that only paid member teams  can compete in Science Olympiad tournaments.  Each team can consist of no more that 15 students.  Please consult the Science Olympiad rules for additional details as to grade requirements for Division B and Division C teams as there are restrictions and limitations.
