A virtual year couldn’t stop MAMS from holding their annual National Geographic Geography Bee. Eight middle school students earned their place in the Geography Bee by completing a written test. The students then faced off in a remote classroom setting to determine this year's champion. Aaron Deardorff, grade 7, outlasted his competitors and earned the title of 2021 Geography Bee Champion. Aaron had high hopes of winning this year since he took second place last year as a sixth grader. Congratulations to all eight finalists who earned a spot in the 2021 Geography Bee.
