Alumni
Science Olympiad welcomes all former competitors, teachers, Event Supervisors, state and regional directors and parents to the newly-formed Science Olympiad Alumni Network! The Alumni Network will be a gathering place of new ideas, old stories and inspiration for anyone connected to Science Olympiad. We'll be posting "Where Are You Now?" photos and video from the Science Olympiad archives and looking for news on who started a business, got a patent, made a discovery, or received a career award. Over the past 33 years, Science Olympiad has touched the lives of millions of people, so reconnect, recharge and renew your passion for science. You can find us on Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and Twitter.
