Mrs. Tracey Duldhardt, Chair of Mathematics
Back in November, eighty Upper School students participated in the University of Waterloo’s Canadian Intermediate Math Contest (CIMC) and Canadian Senior Math Contest (CSMC). Normally, we would have shared the results weeks ago, but the details for awarding Certificates of Distinction and our final Team Scores were delayed by UW as result of last year’s postal strike.
So, here are our long-awaited results!
Students earn a Certificate of Distinction for scoring in the top 25% of all contestants across Canada. Our top performing SJK student from each contest is also awarded a medal.
Canadian Intermediate Math Contest (Grades 9 & 10, includes some Grade 7 & 8 participants)
The top five scores are combined for our Intermediate Team score of 205. This ranked us as the fifth highest school in our area (total of 21 schools), 42nd in Ontario and a remarkable 66th in all of Canada.
Congratulations to our seven CIMC certificate earners:
