February 27, 2007
Today the 6th, 7th, and 8th graders took a 30 minute multiple choice problem solving test to compete against other schools. The top five students at each grade level will be entered into the contest as a team. This contest is led by the Illinois Mathematics League. For each contest, awards are given to the two schools with the highest total scores and also to the two students with the highest total scores in the League. Additional awards are also given to the highest scoring school in each county. This is a great opportunity for the students to use their math knowledge to solve some rather difficult tasks. Listed below are the TOP 5 from each grade level. (The 5th grade will be competing later in the school year.)

1. Jon Hasler, Brianna Randleman 20 pts.
3. Carl Toepfer 19 pts.
