Students from Neoga got a chance to show off their science skills recently by competing in this year’s Eco Meet. The junior high and high school teams, coached by Mrs. Brown and Mr. Ballard respectively, travelled to Lake Shelbyville on October 7th to participate in the competition. Each team member took a series of tests on various subjects pertaining to ecology and the environment. Subjects tested on included edible and medicinal plants, trees, amphibians, the life of a bee, rocks, and butterflies. Overall, Neoga placed well in the contest with junior high taking fourth place and high school taking 7th place. Congratulations Eco team!
