The US National Chemistry Olympiad (USNCO) was held on March 21st, and many SHSID students participated as well. Among a couple of hundred participants in China, three students (two from SHSID) got into the next USNCO national round. In addition, seven SHSIDstudents in total were awarded with a top 10% score. Students enthusiastically learned more about chemistry and earned high scores and certificates from this competition. It is hoped that other students who are interested in chemistry participate and have a meaningful experience at USNCO as well! Congratulations to all the students who were awarded, and we wish that the two students who are participating in the national round will perform well.
