United South Central School District

The USC Elementary Knowledge Bowl Teams competed at Fitzgerald Loyola in Mankato at the end of October. This year, we are proud to have four teams participating—one sixth-grade team and three fifth-grade teams. The team names include the USC Red Angry Cherries, USC Blue Bubblrs, USC Green Geese, and USC Purple Pandas. Students demonstrated excellent teamwork, problem-solving, and enthusiasm throughout the competition. A special thank-you goes to coaches Karissa Bauman and Ellen Gordon Kamm for their time, leadership, and dedication in supporting our students and fostering a love of learning.
