The contest is open to students in grades 4-8. The contest winner has the opportunity to take the eligibility test for the State Geographic Bee in the Nashville area in the spring. Past MHEA winners have performed very well in the state competition. The questions begin as multiple choice and gradually increase in difficulty. No one is eliminated until after several rounds of questions. Topics cover all areas of geographic study, including current events. Come on out and have fun with geography!The Geographic Bee is open to MHEA members only. Please contact GeoBee@MemphisHomeschool.org with questions about the bee.
