About Us

The Bronx High School of Science has a long and proud tradition of excellence in STEM education. Our Science Olympiad team was established circa 2010 as a small academic team.What began as a small team gradually grew into one of the school's most successful academic teams. Over the years, we've built a reputation of excellence and merit in the New York Science Olympiad circuit, consistently placing among the top teams in regional competitions and qualifying at the state level. Our rigorous preparation, dedicated advisors, and passionate students have helped establish Bronx Science as a powerhouse in science competitions.

Today, our team consists of over 150 active members across three competitive teams (A, B, and C), with students specializing in various events ranging from biology and chemistry to physics, earth science, and engineering. Our exceptional growth reflects our commitment to fostering the next generation of scientists and cultivating teamwork among our student body.

While we've consistently demonstrated our excellence at the regional level, our sights are set on greater achievements. At the New York State Science Olympiad Competition, we compete against the best teams from across the state, and have shown steady improvement over the years, climbing from 30th place in 2016 to 12th place in 2024.

Our ultimate goal is to represent New York at the National Science Olympiad Tournament. We recognize that reaching this level requires extraordinary dedication, preparation, and performance. Each year, we refine our training methods, strengthen our knowledge base, and enhance our build designs to move closer to this objective.

For the 2025 season, we've implemented specialized training programs, increased our practice time, and brought in expert coaches to help us break into the top 10 at the state level. With continued determination and hard work, we believe our goal of reaching the national competition is within reach in the coming years.
