Four 4^th grade teams are tied for 1^st place nationally with only four other teams!!

64 students earned perfect scores!

This year, we split our students into 8 teams of 20-25 students to give more students a chance to contribute to team scores, even though it makes it more difficult for each team to win against other schools that often enter just one large team. All of our teams also compete it the more difficult Pythagorean Division, and they did so well!

In December, our students competed in the second meet of the MOEMS Division M contest with great success. This year we fielded two teams. Students are placed on a team based on the first letter of their first name, so that the teams are roughly the same in strength.

Usually, the expected score after two meets for the teams on target for the top team award is about 80-84 points out of 100 possible maximum. After two meets, the team standings are as follows:

• Team A-Ja scored 88 points.
• Team Jo-Z scored 95 points.

Both of our teams are on track for top team awards in their age groups!

Individually, students averaged 3.05 out of 5, compared to 1.23 national average! That low of a national average means that this was an incredibly challenging contest. Our students in Grade 5 and younger did exceptionally well, scoring over 3.26 points above the national average!! Here are the averages by grade on our team compared with the national averages (the difference is shown in parenthesis):

• Grade <= 5: 3.82 vs 0.57 (+3.26)
• Grade 6: 2.55 vs 1.03 (+1.52)
• Grade 7: 3.13 vs 1.21 (+1.92)

All of our students who earned perfect scores in this meet also earned perfect scores in the last meet, which is phenomenal! These students are Charlotte O, Isaac C-O, (James B), (James L-C) [on a school team], (James S), John P, (John X), Leo S, (Rich L), (Zimo L), and (Ziqi Z).

All students in parentheses are in 5^th grade or younger, which is amazing!!
