WELCOME TO KNOWLEDGE BOWL!

Knowledge Bowl is kind of like a team Jeopardy competition. A school’s Knowledge Bowl team is made up of a total of 3 or more smaller teams consisting of 4 - 6 team members.  Our school’s teams compete against other teams from neighboring schools to see who can answer the most trivia questions in math, science, history, English, and social studies.  During each competition, teams compete in a written round (45 multiple-choice questions) and two oral rounds (45 questions each).  The winning team is based on the total number of questions answered correctly in all three rounds.

This year the season will run from early February through to almost the end of March.  All practices will be held at Skyridge in room 224.  Practices usually run from 3:15 to 4:15. We practice Monday through Thursday until the meets begin in late February.  Once the meets start, practices will be held only on Mondays and Wednesdays. Sometimes we have to split the team into two different practice squads on an “every other day” practice schedule to accommodate the large number of kids who turn out, but that’s historically been pretty unusual. Please note that there is no practice scheduled on any of the Fridays during the season.
