Wyoming Science Olympiad
The Wyoming Science Olympiad (WYSO) is your chance to dive into science like never before. Picture a day packed with hands-on challenges, puzzles, and experiments where you and your teammates get to show off what you know, and what you can create.
Some events are all about quick thinking and problem-solving, while others let you build, test, and launch your way to victory. You’ll lean on what you’ve learned in class, but the real fun comes from preparing with your team and seeing how your ideas stack up on competition day. Most events are team-based, so it’s about supporting each other, working together, and celebrating what you discover.
