Students advance to state Geography Bee As global events unfolded this year, having a sound understanding of the world and its geography, politics, cultures and religions has been essential. Such knowledge is second nature to three of Fayette's students who were selected to compete at the state level of the National Geographic Bee last month. In order to qualify for participation, students took written tests after winning their individual school's bee. Only the top 100 scoring students were allowed to advance to the state level. The students who qualified were Walker Rogers of Fayette Middle, Kyle Brooks of Whitewater Middle and Bobby Worth of Hudddleston Elementary. Their achievement was recognized during the May meeting of the Fayette Board of Education. What do you think of this story? Click here to send a message to the editor.
