Team Results: [table of contents]

Schools are divided into two divisions based on the number of students, the number of teachers, the scope of the math program, etc. For each team, we average the top 3 written exam scores. This score is added to the score from the ciphering contest to give us the team score. Trophies are awarded to the schools with the top three team scores from each division. Congratulations to the following schools.
