Mater Christi Teams Qualify for Odyssey of the Mind World Finals
Mater Christi Teams Qualify for Odyssey of the Mind World Finals
April 7, 2011, page 7.....

Six teams from Mater Christi School (MCS) participated in the 2011 Odyssey of the Mind State Tournament on Saturday, March 19, at CVU.
Grades 3-5 and grade 6 Division II, Problem II teams placed first, and the seventh grade Division II, Problem II team placed second in the state. Tyler Sangalli of Charlotte is one of the students on the grade 6 team.
These three teams received trophies and have qualified to advance to world finals in Maryland in May.  Mater Christi School also had a Primary team made up of second graders, and these participants received a trophy for their performance.  The 8th grade, Division II, Problem III team received a third place state trophy. 
Congratulations were extended to the MCS Team members and their coaches for having the highest number of teams participate in the OOTM competition.
Vermont’s Odyssey of the Mind is offered by Vermont Creativity Quest, a member of the Odyssey New England network. The purpose of the OOTM is to promote creativity, divergent thinking, team-work skills, and self-confidence in the youth of Vermont by providing them the opportunity to participate in creative-problem solving through the Odyssey of the Mind Program.
With three teams qualifying to go to the finals, members of the MCS community are now looking for creative ways in which to raise the money needed to get to finals in Maryland.
