Missouri

Missouri is a very competitive state, with numerous competitive teams. It has sent two teams from each division to nationals since 1989, but starting in 2018 it will only send one team from each division due to the addition of other states to Science Olympiad.

History
Missouri lost its second Nationals bid in 2018 after sending two teams to nationals from both divisions for over three dozen years. Missouri teams tend to fare strongly at the national tournament, often netting top-20 finishes. Additionally, throughout Missouri Science Olympiad's history, the school districts of Ladue (Middle School and Horton Watkins High School) from the suburb of Ladue near St. Louis city and Pembroke Hill (Middle School and High School) from Midtown Kansas City have dominated the state competition.
