State+Math+Day

It's finally here! The state-wide Math Day competition is coming up on May 1st in Fort Dodge, Iowa. Schools from all over Iowa, including Hoover Elementary's team A, composing of Joey Helm, Nathan Cheney, Cole Ragland, Payton Scheinost, and Jacob Steenbock are going.

Earlier this year, Hoover finished 2nd overall, including 3 ninth place finishers. Hoover teams worked on old math day problems to show the kids what they should know and what they need to get in their heads before the competition starts.

Payton Scheinost commented on going to the state math day. "I think we have a solid chance of winning. We just have to take it one problem at a time."
