This year’s National Challenge participants are turning heads nationwide!

 The National Challenge is only a few weeks away, and our 36 participants are studying hard for their chance to show off what they’ve learned in Philadelphia! Their efforts haven’t escaped the attention of local press – we’ve seen a steady stream of articles about our State Challenge winners and their national aspirations. Whether it’s a repeat State Champion from Michigan, a 10-year-old fifth grader who’ll be representing Tennessee, the newest Pennsylvania State Champion, preparing to compete in his own backyard, or a girl who will be Missouri’s first ever representative at the National Challenge, we invite you to read about their respective journeys to the big day.
