RCS Geography Bee Champion

Congratulations to seventh grader Zachary Breault who emerged as the Rippowam Cisqua School Geography Bee champion – again!

As a sixth grader Zack also earned the title of Geography Bee champion, and went on to compete at the state level competition of the National Geographic Bee in Albany, New York.

Every Rippowam Cisqua student in Grades 5-8 took part in the Geography Bee. Zack was invited by the National Geographic Society to take a qualifying exam to see whether or not he will be able to compete at the state level. We will learn the results of that test in March; the online exam was taken by up to 100 students from each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Department of Defense Dependents Schools, and U.S. territories.

Good luck as the competition continues, Zack, and a hearty congratulations to all five semifinalists who are pictured here with ninth grade teacher (and Geography Bee coordinator) Amy Stern and Head of Upper Campus Bill Barrett.

The five RCS Geography Bee finalists are:

Zachary Breault
Sam Federman
Cameron Hackett
William Kallman
Wesley Neidhardt
