MathCounts Team Wins at BYU Competition

Submitted by april.rockwood on

Our MathCounts team competed at the BYU MathCounts competition in February. We had 12 students participate in the competition. Our team of 4 students took 1st place, including Payton Pratt, Neil Payne, George Bassett, and Preston Lefler.

In the individual competition, two of our Springville students placed in the top 12. Luke Pratt, who joined our students from Spring Canyon Middle Shool, placed 8th overall as a 6th grader! George Bassett from SJHS was the 2nd student from our group to place in the top 12. These two will be joined by our 4 person team to compete at the state competition later this month. Congratulations!

Submitted by april.rockwood on

All Nebo schools will be open on the regular schedule for Thursday, February 23, 2023. We truly appreciate the city, county, state, and district personnel for their diligent work in our recent storm across our district. Please remember that school closures are rare. In most cases, school will remain in session even with Utah's climate. Because weather conditions may vary greatly in different neighborhoods and on different streets, we encourage parents to make attendance decisions for their own students.
