ISR Participates in Rhein Kreis Neuss Mathematics Competition
Two students from ISR Internationale Schule am Rhein in Neuss (ISR) recently put their mathematics skills to the test by participating in the Rhein Kreis Neuss Mathematics Competition. Held since 1988, the Rhein Kreis Neuss Mathematics Competition is a locally-run mathematics competition within the Rhein-Neuss Region and is open to students in grades 4 through 13. The competition challenges students to think logically and mathematically to solve a number of problems in various ways.
This year, approximately 200 students entered the first round, of which 68 students progressed into the second round. Of the two ISR students who participated in the competition, Nils Zhang, Grade 8, ultimately achieved third place among all Grade 8 students participating in the contest.
“We are very pleased to have Nils distinguished for his performance in this long-standing contest,” commented Eileen Lyons, ISR Director. “Next year we are hoping to enter more ISR students and are looking forward to continued success.”
As a member of the SABIS® School Network, ISR implements a rigorous, college-preparatory mathematics program. Through this program, ISR students acquire a solid understanding of mathematics, which plays an instrumental role in preparing students for success in college and beyond.
