RC Student Scores in Top 5% on AMC8

Congratulations to Allison Orr '29 who was presented with the Honor Roll Award for the American Mathematics Competition! The AMC is the preeminent math competition for students K-12. This year, 80,000 students from over 2,000 schools took part, and awards were presented to those students who score in the top 5% of competitors. For the AMC8, students in grades 6-8 have 40 minutes to complete 25 challenging math problems - no calculators allowed - and the top 5% qualifying score was 19 correct answers. Allison scored 20!!! We are so thankful for the dedicated RC faculty who encourage and challenge our young mathematicians to pursue excellence, and we can't wait to see what the future holds for this remarkable Royal Lion!
