As Schools Match Wits

Advisor: Mr. Zdroykowski

Purpose:

The "As Schools' Match Wits" Program had aired on Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. on WWLP, Channel 22, for over forty years.  However, the show has now been picked up by WGBY, Channel 57 and will begin production at Westfield State College in January 2007.  Air times will be announced.

Area high schools compete on the quiz show each with one team of four and an alternate.  The teams select from school curriculum and trivia categories and the team with the most correct answers/points wins. Once a school has achieved three consecutive victories, they are retired until the playoffs, usually held in May and June.  If a school loses, they are automatically eliminated until the next year.

Students not selected by the advisors are still invited to attend the taping of the show in preparation for future participation.

Meeting Times:     Wednesday after school.  More as show taping approaches.

Dues/Fees:             None

Season:                  The entire school year.  Varies (depends on the ASMW schedule issued by WGBY Channel 57).  Students must regularly attend meetings to qualify to be on any of the teams.
