As the mathletes boarded the bus to return to CC, they thanked Dr. Steven Levin, provided pies for dessert for the mathletes. ![]() In celebration of pie-day, our tour host, CC School Board Member Dr. Third place medals were earned by Ada Meighan-Thiel (Lin Howe), Parker Larium (El Marino), Tyler Muir (Farragut), and Ali Watanabe (El Marino). In the individual event, a 2nd place medal was earned by Ren Gibbs (El Marino School). In the team event, the Lin Howe team of Lila Bragard, Jack Fine, Naomi Geiger, Igor Glogonic and Ada Meighan-Thiel, won fourth place from a field of 30 teams. One-hundred seventy-eight students from 28 elementary schools competed, and 8 CC students performed extremely well. The JPL tour was a special opportunity for the students who competed in the Ninth Annual Excellence in Mathematics Culver City Math Olympiads Tournament. ![]() The tour guides were the scientists and engineers who designed and managed the various satellite projects and it was great to have the mathletes interacting with these scientists. It took five years for Juno to get to Jupiter, and once it settles into orbit, it will collect data from a few thousand miles above the clouds. The mathletes learned about the upcoming Juno satellite’s arrival at Jupiter on July 4, 2016. The mathletes toured the Spacecraft Assembly Facility, Space Flight Operations Facility and the JPL museum includes models of satellites built and operated by JPL. 3, 1 and 4 are the first three digits of the number Pi which we can write as 3.14. The March 14 tour occurred on pie-day (3/14). Our goal in organizing the tournament and tour is to create an environment where girls and boys who enjoy the challenges of mathematics can be with others who feel the same way, hopefully stimulating them to pursue STEM careers (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). Howe Los Angeles Countywide 4th and 5th Grade Math Olympiads Tournament. A guided tour of Jet Propulsion Laboratory was specially arranged for the 46 Culver City mathletes who participated in this year’s Linwood E. ![]()
