Martha's Vineyard Regional High School to Compete in High School Quiz Show Qualifier

Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School will be one of 120 high schools from across Massachusetts that will compete for a chance to take part in Season 6 of the High School Quiz Show on WGBH.

The schools will compete on Nov. 16 during “Super Sunday” at the WGBH Studios. Each academic team of four students will take an identical oral quiz of 100 questions based on the Massachusetts curriculum.

The top 16 teams will advance to play on a televised, single-elimination, bracketed academic tournament. The season will culminate with a Governor’s Cup Challenge, which will pit Massachusetts’ winner against New Hampshire’s top team.

High School Quiz Show will begin taping in front of a studio audience at WGBH in January. It will premiere Saturday, Feb. 7 at 6 p.m. on WGBH 2.

“We are excited to welcome so many new schools to the competition, and to once again offer High School Quiz Show as a platform for Massachusetts high school students to showcase their smarts,” said Executive Producer Hillary Wells. “We look forward to seeing such an impressive number of our state’s academic stars competing on Super Sunday.”
