The Science Olympiad Foundation (SOF) organises several Olympiads every year. By participating in these SOF Olympiads, students not only earn valuable recognition but all get a few SOF rewards for participating in them and some students are also recognised for their excellent performance.
For the academic year 2024-25, students will be rewarded at various levels - school, zonal, district, and international. There will be special recognitions for teachers and principals based on student and school performance. Check the article below to get in-depth information on SOF awards and recognition 2024-25.
