On Saturday March 13, the Amity Science Bowl team qualified for nationals by winning the statewide competition. The team was made up of five seniors: Peter Scully (co-captain), Arnav Paliwal (co-captain), Eugene Chang, Andy Kim, and Adarsh Kongani. Science Bowl is a Jeopardy-style team competition run by the US Department of Energy since 1991. Questions test students’ knowledge of the STEM fields (biology, physics, chemistry, earth science, astronomy, and math) in a fast-paced format. Amity’s Science Bowl team is a relatively new club at Amity founded by Arnav and Peter at the end of their freshman year. If anyone is interested in joining, they can email either paliwalar21@amityschools.org or scullype21@amityschools.org. Amity Science Bowl Advisor/Coach is Deborah Best (Science Teacher) deborah.best@amityregion5.org.
