Meg Finishes First Among All Kids in UIL Science Competition
Warning, shameless bragging to follow...
Last weekend, Meg was among 30 students from Hudson Bend MS who competed in the UIL Science competition. Her teacher had asked her to lead a group of fellow students to prepare them in before-school meetings. They've been meeting over the last several months.
The competition was last Saturday at Hill Country MS in the Eanes school district, with seven middle schools the area school districts competing. These districts included Lake Travis, Eanes, Austin, and Dripping Springs. Meg estimates 120-150 kids took the test.
Meg completed the scheduled 45-minute test in 15 minutes. Her teacher called us later that evening excitedly to tell us that Meg scored the highest among all the kids who took the test.
We celebrated her fantastic accomplishment with some great Chuy's Tex Mex. Whoo hoo! Way to go, Meg!
