Students Compete in Math Contest

Juniors Kierstan Kahoe, Manoj Rai, and Freshman Brennan Waterman competed in the 17th Annual High School Mathematical Contest in Modeling. In this contest, students work as a team to solve a challenging but real-world problem. Their task this year was to design an ideal train station. They worked for nearly 36 hours to generate their own mathematical model and write a short paper summarizing the model and the results. This competition truly challenges students to apply their classroom knowledge to the real world. The results for the competition will be announced later this winter. Howard Berger is in charge of this stellar threesome and Jeanne Mullen co coordinates. Way to go students!
