Landing School Hosts Math Bee, Winners Advance to District Competition

On May 20, Landing School held its annual Math Bee. All fifth-grade students first competed in classroom math bees, with eight advancing to the schoolwide competition. David Y. won the competition after competing through multiple rounds and a championship sudden-death tie-breaker. David, along with runners-up Harris and Callie will represent Landing School at the District Wide Math Bee on June 2, where they will face off against the winner and runner-up from Connolly School. Congratulations to David, our Math Bee winner, and to Harris and Callie, our runners-up! We would also like to recognize all the participants as they were the top in the entire 5th grade class: Sophia,Tatiana, Edwin, Giovanny, Zoey, Callie, Christopher, and Nachikamdi.
