Topeka Collegiate School entered four teams in the 1997 National Science Olympiad. Each team was made up of TCS students that qualified by taking a written test over material related to an area of science. The four teams were a fifth grade science team (Mary Kate Baldwin and Larry L. Miller, instructors), a sixth grade general science team (Larry L. Miller, instructor), a seventh grade life science team (Larry L. Miller, instructor) and a seventh and eighth grade general science team (Larry L. Miller, instructor).

The TCS Science Department was pleased to announce at the Thursday, 22 May 1997 Awards Assembly that the TCS sixth grade team scored in the top 25% of the nation, and that the other three teams scored in the top 10% of the nation. More than 2000 schools from across the nation entered teams consisting of their best students.
