Siara Chavez wasn’t the only student on her Flowery Branch High School team that was surprised to take first place at the 39th annual Odyssey of the Mind World Finals held at Iowa State University May 23-26. It’s a stiff competition that challenges students to be innovative creators and inventors using science, technology, engineering and math education.
