Bayport-Blue Point Fifth Grader is Geography Bee Champ

Tyler Teufel is now heading to statewide bee competition.

Tyler Teufel, a fifth-grade student at Academy Street School in the Bayport-Blue Point School District, was crowned winner of the school’s annual Geography Bee. The competition posed questions pertaining to U.S. geography and cities, continents and cultural geography.

Teufel competed against his third-, fourth- and fifth-grade peers for the title and the chance to compete in a statewide geography bee. To qualify for the state bee, he must take a written test in January. The school community wishes him the best of luck on advancing to the next round.
