​Students at Nackawic Senior High School finished in the semi-finals during two invitational Reach for the Top tournaments held recently in the province. The students competed at the intermediate level against nine other Anglophone​ schools in New Brunswick. Members of NHS Team Awesome were Alex Clark, Maya Clearwater, Cameron Newlands, Jack Van Oord and Taylor Curtis.

Reach for the Top is a Canadian academic quiz competition for high school students. Teams qualify for higher level contests through several stages of competition. From snappers to open and team questions, the students must be on the top of their trivia game to come up with the right answers and score points for their team.  At the provincial level, teams may qualify to enter the national competition. In the past, Reach for the Top has also been a game show broadcast nationally on the CBC, showcasing some of the brightest young minds in the country.
