On Saturday February 2nd, Elisabeth Morrow middle school
students participated in the annual Math Counts Contest at Bergen County
Community College. This is a national contest sponsored by the National Society
of Professional Engineers and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.
Over 30 public and private schools attended the competition. The contest
consists of a 30 question individual contest (where a calculator is allowed), 8
sprint (timed) questions, and a 10-question team contest. The Elisabeth
Morrow team of Annika Kim, William Chung, Emily Yu and Lee Staphos with
alternate Chrissie Anagnos placed 6th. Each team member came home with a trophy
and coach Carol Toth received a plaque for
preparing the students. Kudos for a job well done.
