Gina's Geniuses was the name of Gina's team in the Trivia Slam and in the P.S. 38 Centennial Scavenger Hunt. Their main opponent was Nate and Francis's team (Named Francis's Factoids for the Trivia Slam and Nate's Non-Stoppers for the Scavenger Hunt).

The team members of Francis's Factoids and Gina's Geniuses.

In the days preceding the Trivia Slam, Nick Blonsky was suspended for a week for stealing a camera in order to initiate a fight between Nate Wright and Francis Pope, much to Nick's own pleasure. Gina's Geniuses recruited Randy Betancourt instead, due to his knowledge about sports and movie trivia, and they competed in the Trivia Slam. They ultimately lost when Randy did not know how many pawns are supposed to be on a chessboard (16 pawns) when the game begins due to him being more of a contact sport guy or a “Tic-Tac-Toe kind of Guy” according to Nate Wright.

P.S. 38 Centennial Scavenger Hunt[]

Gina's Geniuses had a second try, and they competed in the Centennial Scavenger Hunt, where they started out ahead but lost to Nate's Non-Stoppers on Item #12, which was to find something that would make P.S. 38 a better place. The Geniuses found a suggestion box, where students would put their suggestions into it to make P.S. 38 a better place. Nate then said that he couldn't bring his team's item with him, which made Gina think that her team won. The item turned out to be the only ever Granny Peppers made (A famous deceased folk artist) Mural, which resulted in P.S. 38 selling the Mural to the Museum of American Folk Art, P.S. 38 using the money to make some improvements to the school, and Nate's Non-Stoppers winning the P.S. 38 Centennial Scavenger Hunt. It is not known if the school still used the suggestion Box.
