Description
Kent Gardens will again compete in the Virginia Science Olympiad (VASO). We will kick off the season with a parent meeting on Friday, September 12 at 8am, Room 116.
Parent Coordinator: We need at least 2 Parent Coordinators who schedule bi-monthly event progress meetings and provide information on the rules, date, logistics for the eventual regional tournament that takes place in February.
Parent Mentor: Each event has a parent who mentors each student pair of participants.
Divisions B and C are VASO’s flagship programs. VASO holds regional qualifying tournaments open to all registered teams in Virginia. The State Tournament, held after all of the regionals have been completed, is open to the highest scoring teams at the regional tournaments. The State winners in each division are then invited to the national tournament in May. Division B is middle school level. Kent Gardens participates at the middle school level.

The Division B regional tournament will be held in late February 2026.
