"Technology Serving Arizona Business, Industry,
Education, and Government"
ACESA is a communications network into Arizona's
pool of scientific, engineering, and technical practicing professionals.
The mission of ACESA is to support, promote and coordinate the programs and
activities of the engineering and science associations of Arizona.
ACESA was created in the 1950s by the leaders of various professional societies
in the valley to coordinate and enhance their ability to achieve their
individual society objectives. ACESA continues to support the societies by
operating as an umbrella organization and providing a communications
infrastructure.
Society representatives and other volunteers meet once a month to exchange
information and provide support for each other’s activities. Since community
interfacing and various educational competitions are multidisciplinary, ACESA is
the primary means of disseminating information and promoting these activities.
Members can also broadcast their activity information (messages, announcements
and questions) to the rest of the subscribers.

Arizona Science Olympiad
Welcome to our official web site. Here you will find
information and resources relating to tournaments, events, and winners.
Our Sponsors
Follow
this link to see our sponsors.
Our Goals
The Science Olympiad is devoted to improving the quality of
science/math education, increasing student interest in science/math and
providing recognition for outstanding achievement in science/math education by
both students and teachers. We hope to achieve these goals through
participation in Science Olympiad tournaments, classroom activities and summer
training institutes for teachers. We also hope that our efforts can bring
academic competition to the same level of recognition and praise normally
reserved for athletic competitions in this country.

program.
The Tournament
Science Olympiad tournaments are held on local, state and
national levels. These interscholastic competitions consist of a series of
individual and team events that encourage learning in biology, earth science,
chemistry, physics, problem solving and technology.
History of the Arizona Science Olympiad
In the spring of 1982 Hugh Forshier, science teacher at Shadow
Mountain High School of the Paradise Valley District with help of fellow
teachers, Lois Blondeau and Dick Dutton conducted a Science Olympiad Contest
utilizing the basic sciences – Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics.
Awards of plaques and trophies were presented courtesy of the Arizona-Nevada
Academy of Science.
In the summer of 1988, Dr. Charles Y. Hoyt, started the High
School Division C Science Olympiad program. The Arizona Alliance for
Mathematics, Science and Technology Education has sponsored the Science
Olympiad program from the beginning until 2004.
In April of 2005 after the dissolution of the AZA the Arizona
Science Olympiad Division C became an affiliated organization of the
Arizona-Nevada Academy of Science.
