Over the course of this school year, Mrs. Stevens, our district's math coach, has organized a Math 24 competition among our elementary and middle school students. Additionally, she has spearheaded the implementation of First in Math, an online math practice site which includes a variety of practice problems for students. All CCMS students have had access to the site this year. Jackson Elementary, Cambria Elementary, and Central Cambria Middle School held internal Math 24 competitions to determine students from each grade level who would compete at the regional competition. Yesterday, the winners of those contests competed at a regional competition hosted by the Appalachian Intermediate Unit. We had several students at the elementary and middle school level reach the semifinals. Mark Losey, representative from First In Math, came to CCMS to acknowledge our students' outstanding performance on the First In Math site. He gave awards to our top performers in each grade level, and gave the 6th grade students a pep talk since CCMS stood out among the many districts that he works with. These were great opportunities organized by Mrs. Stevens, and we thank her for her work with our kids.
