Fantastic Year for <strong>Northview</strong>’s Math Teams<br />
<strong>The</strong> 2008 – 2009 school year has been a banner year for <strong>Northview</strong>’s math teams. This year,<br />
With Alpharetta <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>, <strong>Northview</strong> co-hosted the North Fulton Invitational Mathematics<br />
Tournament in September. <strong>The</strong> students then hosted the first <strong>Titan</strong> Invitational Math Tournament<br />
that was held in January. Approximately 125 students from 16 high schools participated<br />
on that day. We are looking forward to hosting again next year.<br />
Our Junior Varsity team placed very well in the tournaments they attended, which included a<br />
1 st place showing at the Creekview tournament and a 2 nd place at the Georgia Tech <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong><br />
Mathematics Competition. <strong>The</strong>ir season culminated with a 2 nd place showing at the Junior Varsity<br />
State Tournament held in March.<br />
<strong>Northview</strong>’s Varsity team performed extremely well this year, winning 1 st place at tournaments<br />
held at Cobb County, Creekview and Greater Atlanta Christian <strong>School</strong>. <strong>The</strong>re were also several<br />
2 nd place finishes, including the University of Georgia tournament and the Rockdale County<br />
tournament. <strong>The</strong>ir season ended with a 2 nd place finish at the Georgia Council of Teachers of<br />
Mathematics State Tournament held in April.<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> was also very well represented through individual competitions held throughout the<br />
year. Based on scores from the American Mathematics Competition, 13 students were selected<br />
to take the American Invitational Mathematics Examination. Two students, Sitan Chen and<br />
Benjamin Hu, were selected to take the qualifying test for the United States Mathematics<br />
Olympiad. Sitan and Benjamin were 2 of 11 students in the state of Georgia chosen to participate.<br />
Also, through two rounds of the Kennesaw State University Mathematics Competition,<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> students had 7 of the top 35 scores in the state.<br />
