National Geographic Geography Bee

This past Friday, Michael Stockel represented  Edgerton Middle School at the State Geography Bee in Madison, WI.   This was Michael's third trip to the Bee.  The first round of questions were very difficult this year so he did not make it to the final round although he should be very proud of himself.  Edgerton has been very lucky to have had Michael represent us the last three years as the EMS Geography Champ!  Thank you Michael for your hard work and dedication to the field of geography!
