Best wishes to Tom and Lydia and the whole team!
Thank you! Tom is extremely competitive, and he’s been studying a lot, behind his slacker pose. Lydia has college visits planned for high-end environmental science programs in the Northwest, so I know she’s working toward a win. And Elen did so well in Science Olympiad that I’m feeling much better about her contribution.
Elen hasn’t, to this point, done well on standardized tests, so it’s hard to tell how much she’s learning. Now I know she’s quite up on Glaciation and Meteorology, and it’s reasonable to suppose she knows a lot of Soil Science. We just have to work on math before she gets to the PSAT!
