Owen McCarthy -- 3-Time NMS Geography Champ Goes to States


NMS Geo Champ Represents at State Level

This past Friday, March 27, eighth grade student, Owen McCarthy represented the Nichols Middle School on the state level in the The National Geographic Geography Bee.

Owen has been our Geography Bee Champion all three years he has competed at the middle school. He won it as a 6th grader, 7th, and now 8th grade student.  An incredible accomplishment on its own.  

Once someone wins at the school level, that student must take a test to see if he qualifies for the state level.

This year Owen did just that, and this past Friday, Owen represented us in Worcester.

Owen's ride came to a close, but we appreciate all of Owen's hard work and diligence in representing Nichols so well.

Congrats, Owen!
