Math Field Day

On March 9, twenty eight Seisen students took part in the Math Field Day competition with eleven other schools.  This event was cancelled last year as schools were just figuring out how to deal with the pandemic.  It is usually a very long day with an early bus ride and some time getting through base security.  Everything was online this year and it went reasonably well.

Our students competed from home, mainly because they were competing against each other for one challenge of the day.  The team event is a bit unusual because each team is made up of students from a mix of schools.  The “engineering” part of the event was not held this year.


Middle School (11 students)

Because the event was cancelled last year, none of our competitors brought previous experience to the day.  We were not able to do our usual after-school practice.  Nevertheless, our girls did well and we hope they each found value in their collaboration with students from other schools and in the challenge of solving so many math problems.
