DMS Spell Bowl
Greetings!
Thank you for showing an interest in the defending State Champion DMS Spell Bowl Team. Spell Bowl is an exciting academic competition but has a relatively short season. This means that the most dedicated academic athletes are rewarded for their endeavors.
These students qualified for the National MathCon competition at UIC on Saturday, May 5th!
Jerry Yuan received bronze.
Maddie Zavada, Derrick Shi, Raymond Luo, and Luca Nijim received honorable mention.
They were the top 1% just to make it to Nationals and then they finished in the top ten!!
Congratulations!!!
