Bay Academy is a Division B team that competes in New York.
Originally known as the Reynolds Junior High School, The Bay Academy (I.S. 98) is located in New York, New York and is a public magnet school that offers courses in a wide range of disciplines, specializing in the visual arts, creative talent, and sciences. The school has an enrollment of approximately 1,500 students.
Alumni have gone to prestigious high schools such as Midwood High School, The Leon M. Goldstein High School for the Sciences, as well as specialized high schools such as Stuyvesant High School, Staten Island Technical High School and Brooklyn Technical High School.
The Bay SciOly team was founded in 2015 with little organization and a low member count, where it initially competed in the 2015 NYC Regionals. Though our final medal count was less than what we hoped for, our students were determined to come back better and stronger the following year. We returned with even greater confidence and knowledge, took 2nd place, and earned the coveted letter of invitation to the State competition! Since then, Bay Academy has taken 1st place for six straight years! In addition, in 2022 Bay Academy made Science Olympiad history! In 2022, we were the first ever New York City Middle School Science Olympiad team to ever take 1st Place in States and the first to make it to the National Tournament. This was an amazing moment!!
