Welcome to THE SBHS PTSO

This determined group of Stone Bridge High Schoolers were placed 1st at state level and will now be competing in the Odyssey of the Mind World Finals. Members of this team have been participating since they were in third grade, always striving to achieve their goal of competing in the World Finals. They previously had an opportunity to attend the World Finals but were unable to because of the pandemic. 

In addition to their usual high-school responsibilities and commitments, this group spent many hours after school and on weekends composing the script, building sets, producing costumes, and honing their performance. For these students, this will be a life-changing and inspiring experience, and they will need your aid to get there. They're looking for donations to aid with registration, travel, accommodation, and meal expenses. The World Finals entry fee is $3,000 per team. There is also the cost of transporting the props, as well as travel, housing, and meals, which will total around $1200 per student. 

EVERY DONATION IS A HUGE HELP!

We are an Odyssey of the Mind (OOTM) team from Stone Bridge High School in Ashburn, VA. We are super excited to have been qualified to go to the Odyssey of the Mind World Finals happening in Ames, IA, from May 25th to May 28th, 2022.  About Odyssey of the Mind – OOTM is a creative problem-solving program with two parts: Long term and Spontaneous. Team members work to solve a predefined problem and present their solution to the issue at a competition. During the competition, the team will also participate in a spontaneous round that involves coming up with a solution on the fly. The long-term problem solution takes many months to complete and needs a lot of effort and coordination from the team. It also helps the team to learn to work with each other. The team has to come up with a script, design and construct props and ensure their solution meets the criteria(s) defined in the problem.  WE NEED YOUR HELP TO WIN THE FINALS! - The team has worked hard to make it to the Odyssey of the Mind World Finals. This has been their goal ever since the team was formed and started competing in OOTM. The team is looking for your support to raise funds to cover the team's registration fees and get the props to the event. We sincerely appreciate your help. Any small or big donation would add to the WIN!  We sincerely thank you for your contributions, and please help us by sharing with your friends and relatives!
