Fifteen Years of ESO at JHS
Jacksonville High School hosted its first Elementary Science Olympiad in 1993. Missing just one year since, the 2008 Olympiad marked the 15th event at JHS. Only 2 schools have competed in every JHS Olympiad: Kitty Stone Elementary (Jacksonville) and Donoho (Anniston). And, of all those teams, just one coach has made it back every year. Special thanks go to Donna Plunkett, Donoho head coach, for her 15 years of dedication to the ESO student participants of the Donoho School!
