Geography Bees were held in schools with 4th- through 8th-grade students throughout the state. School-level winners then took a qualifying test, which was then submitted to the National Geographic Society. In each of the 50 states, as well as the District of Columbia, the Department of Defense Dependents Schools, and the U.S. territories, the National Geographic Society invited the students with the top 100 scores to compete at the state level.
