Our purpose

 


TJBO's primary goal is to provide a conducive learning environment dedicated to advancing the knowledge of biology at TJ. Our officers work hard to take biology beyond what is typically taught in high school classes. The majority of our club focuses on preparing for the USA Biology Olympiad competition held in February each year, but we also host a few smaller competitions, such as our annual winter and spring contests. We welcome all interested members to join us in exploring the world of biology every Friday 8B!
