South Burlington High School

On Saturday morning, a member of our SBHS Neuroscience Club participated in the 16th Annual Vermont Brain Bee at UVM. After an impressive performance, Momin Waqar, SBHS sophomore, was named the 2025 Vermont Brain Bee Champion! Momin now has the opportunity to compete at the National Brain Bee at Rutgers University in New Jersey and has been awarded the chance to get MRI and CT scans of his own brain. This is an incredible achievement, and we couldn’t be more proud. If you see Momin in the halls, be sure to congratulate him on this outstanding accomplishment! #SBProud

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and secure school environment. Thanks! 💙🐺
