62 students earned perfect scores; four 4th grade and all 5th grade teams tied for the first place nationally!

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!

One of our Grade 4 teams earned 35 points, and the remaining four teams earned a perfect score of 36 points! There are only nine teams tied for 1st place nationally, and four of them are our teams!

All three of our Grade 5 teams earned perfect scores of 36 points, and they are tied for 1st place nationally among 22 other teams.

Individually, on the Grade 4 Team, Aadi H*, Aayush C, Aidan G, Akhil V, Alba G, Albert P, Alex L, Alexander P, Aryanna L, Bryden B-A, Daxton A, Ella G*, Ethan P, Finn G, Hanson J, Isaac S, Isabelle W*, Jason J, Jonah A*, Julian S, Juliet P, Jupiter H*, Katie L, Katie L, Kayla S, Luke Z, Michael J, Nayan M, Nicolas V, Ramanuja V, Rohan S, Rokas U, Steven J, Velika V, Wesley B*, Ziqi Z*, and on the Grade 5 team, Akshara P, Alexander B, Andy W, Cameron M, Charles H, Charlie M, James R, Jed S (on a school team), Kaleia P, Katherine Y, Kavin B, Leela U, Leo M, Marco C, Maxwell S, Myra S, Natalie F, Neil I (on a school team), Rey B, Saahil J, Shalin P, Surendra V, Theo H, Ved C, Vihaan D, Vikram N, and Zimo L earned perfect scores and led their teams! That is 62 perfect scores among 417 Nationally! Students marked with * are in 3rd grade or younger, but competed on the Grade 4 Team!

We are so proud of our amazing students!!!

37 students earn perfect scores; 73 students score 4 out of 5!

In November, our students competed in the first meet of the MOEMS Division E contest with great success. All our teams are on track for top team awards in their age groups!

This year we fielded seven teams: four Grade 2-4 teams, two Grade 5 teams, and one Grade 6 team. Students within each grade group are placed on a team based on the first letter of their first name, so that the teams are roughly the same in strength.

• Grade 6 Team earned 49 out of 50 points, only one point off of a perfect score!
• Grade 5 Team M-Z also earned 49 points!
• Grade 5 Team A-L earned 46 points.
• Grade 2-4 Team A-Ce earned 40 points
• Grade 2-4 Team Ch-E earned 43 points.
• Grade 2-4 Team J-Ni earned 42 points.
• Grade 2-4 Team No-Z earned 41 points.

Individually, students averaged 3.30 out of 5, compared to 2.20 national average! Here are the averages by grade on our team compared with the national averages (the difference is shown in parenthesis):

• Grade <= 3: 2.93 vs 1.83 (+1.10)
• Grade 4: 2.97 vs 1.94 (+1.03)
