Our goal: to inspire in young people of all backgrounds a love of learning, a confidence in new skills, and a sense of global citizenship. Teams of students will participate in four events: Team Debate, Collaborative Writing, Scholar’s Challenge, and Scholar’s Bowl. Topics of exploration, from moonshot technology to the Testimonial from Aimee: “It was an absolute pleasure science (and art) of prediction, will be drawn from stopping by and seeing everyone's enthusiasm -- we're so this year’s World Scholar’s Cup theme, An Unlikely excited to welcome you all not just into our community of World.
