A team of fourth graders from Trumbull, CT competed in the 40th Annual Connecticut Odyssey of the Mind Tournament on March 16th at Southern Connecticut State University in New Haven. Presenting their solution to the OM problem with a script they wrote themselves and using a set they built, they finished 2nd in the State of Connecticut, securing their place to compete in the World Finals at Michigan State University on May 22-25.
Odyssey of the Mind (OM) is a multi-division, international creative problem-solving competition focusing on skills such as: creative thinking, problem solving, independence, and team building. Millions of students have competed since OM began in 1979. OM challenges are based on ideas that are influenced by science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics; as well as critical thinking, creativity, and teamwork.
The team from Booth Hill School is thrilled to be representing Trumbull, and coaches’ Samantha and Keith Klain have seen the team's skills and confidence developed in this program serve them well. The team also was awarded the “Jill Riggles ” award for achieving the highest score on their spontaneous problem in their division!
To compete in the World Finals, the team needs to raise $15,000 including shipping materials to the competition, room, board, and travel costs.
Thank you for your thoughtfulness and generosity and good luck to the team!
