On
Friday, both of our math teams went to the University of Idaho and gave
it their best and competed well on a test of 8 difficult problems for
which they were given 90 minutes to solve. The overall top team was
from Pullman. There were 14 schools there including Moscow, Coeur
d’Alene, Lewiston and some from southern Idaho too. Our team of juniors
and seniors won the award for “Best Small Rural School”. This award
includes a trophy and $400 to split among the team members. This team
was made of Riley Enneking, Morgan Poxleitner, Colton McElroy, Zane
Uptmor, and alternate Isabella Walsh. Our team of sophomores and
freshmen was made of Briggs Rambo, Carter Shears, Ellie Nuxoll, Max
Rehder, and alternate Collin Ray. I know they all worked very hard and
we are so proud of all of them. They are such a good
representation of the hard work our town upholds and teaches to our
children. I’m so glad I get to be part of our community! Photos by Matt
