Will Melrose High School be among the 16 teams that will qualify for one of the top high school quiz competitions in the state?

Melrose will take part in WGBH’s High School Quiz Show next month when they take part in the show’s Super Sunday qualifier. The school will be among 140 teams that are scheduled to participate in the qualifier set for Nov. 15.

The top 16 teams will advance to compete in the televised, single-elimination, bracketed academic tournament that will determine a state champion. The season will culminate in the winner taking on the winner of New Hampshire Public Television’s Granite State Challenge for the Governor’s Cup.
