Congratulations to WPCS – Frontier Campus for winning the Twin Rivers Unified School District’s annual Knowledge Bowl. It is a test of knowledge and requires teamwork. This is an academic competition open to all schools within our district in 7-8^th and 9^th – 12^th grades. This year 9 middle schools participated. 

For the TRUSD Knowledge Bowl, each team is made up of 5 students and 2 alternates. The competition is held in the style of Jeopardy, with 2 rounds, each with 30 questions. Each team is given a chance to answer all questions. There are six categories with questions of varying degrees. Depending on the type of question, teams are given between 30 seconds and 1 minute to decide on their answer. If a group answers correctly, they are awarded points.

 At the end of the first round, we were tied for first place. However, during the 2^nd round, it was back and forth between 1^st and 2^nd place. In the end, our students won by 20 points! Congratulations to all our participants: Sara Bergeron, Ben Chhen, James Chhen, Autumn Istre, Steph Paz, Kyle Pedercine, and Yessica Vergara.

Thank you Frontier Charter families for making this year's Spaghetti Dinner a success!  All of your hard work and participation is appreciated!
