Geography Bee Update

We found out at parent teacher conferences that Jack will be competing in the state geography bee. He is the first student from his elementary school to qualify for the state level. He is one of 100 students in Utah that will compete next month. The winner goes to DC for the national competition and that winner gets a $25,000 college scholarship. I wonder if the other students are studying because I know this boy sure isn't!
