Knowledge Bowl

Advisor: Renee Ajeman

Knowledge Bowl is a collaborative academic sport where you have the chance to test your wit, trivia, and teamwork skills as you battle against other teams’ skills. We travel and compete with Safford, Pima, Duncan, and Morenci.  It is fun getting to know other members and a great chance to experience self-confidence. The knowledge bowl “season” lasts from September to April.

Robotics Club

Robotics

Advisor: Chris Carrell

Thatcher Middle School's robotics team is a competition based team that designs, engineers, builds, and programs robots to solve a variety of missions. Each year the theme is different, and the team is tasked with tackling a real world problem that they are to solve to improve their community. They then present this solution to community leaders, and will give a presentation before a panel of judges at competition. This year's competition, "SuperPowered" is about using alternative energy sources to accomplish tasks.
