Culbertson Students Earn Math Honors
Students from Culbertson Public Schools traveled to Sidney to participate in this year’s regional MCTM math meet on March 10. Students in grades 7-12 competed in the contest.
Students took a multiple choice test, a numerical response test and a team test. Each test is grade specific and divided into 9-10 and 11-12 tests. The scores of the multiple choice and numerical response tests are combined and students are awarded a “Gold” rating for scoring in the top 10 percent, a “Silver” rating for the next 10 percent and a “Bronze” rating for the next 10 percent.
The top student in each grade was also given recognition with a medal at the regional level.
Tyler Schmidt received a bronze award at the 9-10 level. Felixe Becker received a gold award at the 9-10 level. He also took second place at the 10th grade level, missing top sophomore by only two points. Cal Steppler also placed in the contest and received a bronze award at the 11-12 level.
Culbertson’s junior high school students participating were Nash Petersen, Dakota Bigler, Aeryn Ator, Ella Anderson, Parker Steppler, Easton Steppler, Max Newbill and Beau Becker.
High school students participating were Gerald Happ, Tyler Schmidt, Ally Simonsen, Anna Steppler, Felixe Becker, Arlie Purvis, Stella Fox, Cal Steppler, Ayden Ator and Josie Simonsen.
