All thirty participants were truly champions, regardless of how many medals they won. All of the students worked on some type of math either individually or collaboratively non-stop from 9:00 A.M. until the very last event ending at 12:30 P.M. The amount of learning that went on in our little corner in between events was so exciting to see. Our upperclassmen took their leadership roles seriously, and our underclassmen were wide-eyed and eager to learn.
Ms. Sebaugh said “It really is such an honor and a privilege that Ms. Ritter and I got to spend the day with such bright, fun, and creative students. The students and all math department teachers should be so proud of all their accomplishments.”
