Mission Statement:  To provide participants, parents, coaches and all involved with the team a positive learning experience in the fields of Science.  To compete as a team in Science Olympiad with character described in the Rule Handbook.  To instill not only in ourselves but in our team a sense of pride and integrity that may be passed on for years to come.

Rules, Code of Ethics and Spirit of the Problem:  (quoted from the Rule Book)

Teams are expected to compete in tournament events with honest effort to follow the rules and spirit of the competition.  Team members are expected to be the builders of all the devices used in the events.  The goal of competition is to give one's best effort while displaying honesty, integrity, and sportsmanship.  Students, coaches, supervisors, parents and guests are expected to display courtesy and respect toward Science Olympiad officials, other teams, and guests of Science Olympiad.  Failure to show honesty and/or courtesy by a participant, coach, or guest of the team may result in disqualification of the team from the event, the entire tournament or future tournaments.  Our collective example will promote the spirit of the cooperation among all participants.

Consider the words of Albert Einstein regarding integrity,  The most important human endeavor is the striving for morality in our actions.  Our inner balance and even our very existence depends on it.  Only morality in our actions can give beauty and diginity to our lives.
