This past Saturday, a group of Seabury Hall Middle School and Upper School students volunteered at Pu’u Kukui Elementary School for the sixth session of the Maui Math Circle to help students learn advanced math concepts and problem solving skills.
There were over 35 students in attendance who are enrolled in third, fourth, and fifth grade in schools throughout Maui. The students took part in a competition with problems on topics they had learned about in the previous five sessions, which included probability, arithmetic sequences, basic word problems, divisibility, percentages & fractions, and perimeter & area.
After the competition, the top three individual students in each grade level were awarded medals. In 3rd grade, 1st place was awarded to Emily Tom, 2nd place went to Riley Regan, and 3rd place went to Emily Tom. In 4th grade, 1st place went to Leela Waterford, 2nd place was awarded to Aimi Sakamoto, and 3rd place went to Leela Waterford. In 5th grade, 1st place was awarded to Michael Wong, 2nd place went to Quinton Wong, and 3rd place was awarded to Liam Caldwell. Thank you and congratulations to all of the students who participated in the Maui Math Circle program!
We would like to thank our math team coach, Mitchell Krulewich. Thank you to our student leaders, Kalan Birnie '17, Nicholas Colon '14, Jasmine Doan '15, Jesse Doan '17, Steven Doan '20, Andie Matayoshi '14, Rowan Mulligan '14, Fletcher Prouty '14, David Shiraki '19, Kady Tanaka '19, Reina Tanizaki '14, and Carter Umetsu '14.
