Would you or another adult be willing to coach an event team your child is in? (All coaches will be asked to have a background check completed by the school if a current one is not on file with the office.) Coaching involves scheduling practice times and preparing lessons, sharing books, and helping students learn about their topic(s) and event to the best of you ability. I have materials from previous years to help you begin. Coaching must begin in January (after our break) however, you could start it earlier if needed. Teams can meet after school or at another time that is convenient for its members. All teams consist of two members except for Reflection Relay (must be three) and Water Rockets, which can be up to three members. For example, you could coach Zowie Estimation (with your child and another member) every Thursday for 45 minutes after school. (Coaching can be done at school or at home.) I will give you support and assistance getting you started!
Could you coach? YES, I CAN MAYBE… NO, I’M SORRY, I CANNOT
Have questions about Science Olympiad? Have you coached before and would like to repeat a specific event? Please write comments and questions here and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
