In Math Olympics, students in grades 3-8 participate in timed tests in one of two categories – reasoning (word problems) or computation (quick calculations by hand). They must work quickly and accurately to complete the problems in the time allotted. This year, over 200 students from 8 schools participated in the event. Many of our students placed high in the event.

Congratulations Art Students!
