The RMJSC has two purposes—to give, and to inspire. We strive to provide opportunities for junior high students to demonstrate their theoretical and practical knowledge of the sciences. In addition, our team envisions inspiring our contestants; to make this vision become a reality, we created challenges that allow students to experience the fascinating nature of biology, chemistry, and physics. The RMJSC also allows junior high students to prepare for the daunting transition into high school, a crucial step in education which may be burdensome and confusing for some students. We achieve this by emphasizing the creative applications of learned concepts, a key skill for success in the high school classroom; we challenge our contestants in a variety of contexts, from thoughtful design challenges to thrilling trivia rounds. Each round of the contest is designed not only to educate but also to entertain, to encourage youth to live up to their scientific potential. Youth are our future—inspiring and aiding them on their journey will only make a better world.
