As commissioner of the Georgia Department of Revenue, Doug MacGinnitie brings the sensibilities of private business to the workings of state government. Beyond his work in the public sector, Doug MacGinnitie sits on the board of St. Martin's Episcopal School in Atlanta. The school performed very well at the Elementary Science Olympiad held at Kennesaw State University this May.
The Georgia Science Olympiad is a yearly competition at which student teams from across Georgia participate in a number of events designed to test scientific and engineering knowledge. The competition provides schools with multiple avenues to enhance students' engagement with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
This year, students from St. Martin's attended the elementary level Science Olympiad, where they made a strong showing. They scored in the top 10 in four different events, competing against a field of more than 60 teams. The winning challenges included engineering tasks like bridge building and the "Straw Egg Drop." Through programs like the Science Olympiad, St. Martin's and schools across Georgia demonstrate the excellence of the state's students in STEM disciplines.
