Then, in April, we compete against all Parkway high schools in a trivia night, with trivia questions about the 10 books: authors, characters, what happened in the story, etc. We meet a few times in Academic Lab to vote on the books to read and sign up for your individual books. You are welcome to join us!

Envirothon / Ecochallenge - Focuses on nature and the environment. Envirothon participants study Missouri forests, wildlife, soils, aquatics, and current issues and compete against other students from around the state to put their skill sets to the test in teams of five who cooperate and problem solve. Ecochallenge participants find a local problem that they can find a solution for and work together to make that solution a reality. Both groups meet outside of school time and occasionally during AC Lab. Activities include hiking, speakers, data collection, and in some specialized circumstances overnight outings.
