World Scholar’s Cup Going to Regionals

For those who don’t know, “World Scholar’s Cup is an academic competition mixed with other social activities designed to instill a desire for learning and a discovery of one’s own capabilities.” We invite you to visit our website: wscris.weebly.com to learn more (for instance, did you know that there’s an Alpaca song and an Alpaca march?). You’ll also be able to see past and present team members.

The current RIS World Scholar’s Cup teams have registered for the upcoming Regional Bangkok Round at Brighton College on March 24 and 25. This year we have 54 scholars on 18 teams: 5 Senior teams and 13 Junior teams. Our scholars have finished debate and writing workshops and are in the process of reading and discussing the curriculum.

The year’s theme is “A World on the Margins,” with the following sub-categories:

Special Area: Unsolved Mysteries

Social Studies: On the Edge of Society

History: Neglected Histories

Science: Enabling Technologies

Art and Music: Louder Than Words

Literature: Voices from the Margins
