Math Bee Success

Five OCCS students from sixth grade participated in the NW Iowa Regional Math Bee on Friday, April 13. Participating students included Landon De Jong, Carson Noteboom, Rebecca Philipsen, Levi Rosenboom, and Jocelyn Muilenburg (team-round member).  The OCCS team came in 1^st place this year, with Carson and Landon finishing in the top 20, Levi Rosenboom finishing in 2^nd place overall, and Rebecca Philipsen finishing in 1^st place, to continue her 1^st place record from 4^th and 5^th grade math bees held at Dordt College.  7^th and 8^th grade teams will prepare to participate in a Dordt-sponsored math bee in May.  Thank you to the math bee participants for representing OCCS so well, and to Kim Philipsen for her work coaching the team this year. 

Congratulations, 6th grade math team!
