The Jewish Lyceum No. 144 named after Levi-Itzhak Schneerson summed up the results and announced the winners of the multi-subject Olympiad “Umnicus-2025” for junior high school students.
22 high school students participated in the multi-subject Olympiad “Umnicus-2025” and this Olympiad covered six academic disciplines at once – mathematics, Ukrainian and English languages, natural sciences, computer science and traditions of the Jewish people. The winners of the Olympiad were Georgy Kyrychyty, a 4th grade student (teacher Svitlana Palyukh) and Oleksandr Zhuchkov, a 2nd grade student (teacher Daria Barkova). Only these two lyceum students were able to score more than 80% of the maximum points.
“Hurray! We are proud of you, young erudites,” declared the head teacher of the lyceum Svitlana Romenska, “Umnicus-2025 brought together 22 super participants, and each of you is a real hero! You bravely took on the challenge and passed the tests in as many as 6 subjects! It was a real intellectual battle, and we are delighted with your knowledge, ingenuity and zeal! You did great, overcame all the difficulties and proved that knowledge is power! This Olympiad was a mega-driving experience, and we can already hear you impatiently asking: “When is the next “UMNICUS”?!”. So see you in 2026! Get ready, because it will be even more interesting!”.
