The EHS Knowledge Bowl team is now officially qualified for the upcoming State tournament, ranking second in 1A!  

The tournament will be held virtually March 15 and 16. 

Our team members are Joe Haase, Mollie Kelley, Amber Kopasz, Hatch Nelson, Maggie Haase, and Rachel Kopasz.

Please congratulate these students on their achievement and dedication to this activity! They had to learn a new way of "doing" Knowledge Bowl online in order to still compete during this past year.
