ERHS Big Questions Tournament

2017 — MN/US

East Ridge is hosting a Big Questions Tournament over MEA (October 21st)!  Got students with nothing better to do? Send them my way!  No entry fee required to compete, but we do ask that you send along one judge per two entries.  We would prefer single entries, because we're running this as a fundraiser and have applied for the NSDA grant.  But if you're short on judges / kids aren't comfortable competing on their own, sign them up together!

 

Schedule:

Judges Training / Student Format Reminder: 8:30AM

Round 1: 9AM

Round 2: 10:30AM

(lunch break)

Round 3: 12:30PM

Awards to follow as soon as we have results tabulated and everyone has taken their survey.  We have plaques from the NSDA for the 1st-3rd place entrants, and will have a lot of fun prizes to go around. 

 

Foodwise, we will NOT be running concessions.  Instead, teams can order pizza - $5 per student.  I'll send out an e-mail to registered coaches in advance asking how many students will be ordering pizza (we'll have extra pizza for your judges).  We will likely have judges judging their own schools. 3 Rounds, no finals.  All attendees will be asked to fill out a survey between round 3 and awards. Pl Come try out the topic this year!

 

Resolved: Humans are fundamentally different from other animals.
