Outstanding Performance by CompuChild's North Austin Students at the MOEMS and the Central Texas Math Tournament

DUBLIN, Calif., May 21, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- CompuChild's North Austin franchise registered a team of 20 students from Laurel Mountain, Patsy Sommer, and Elsa England elementary schools to compete in the Elementary division of the MOEMS (Mathematical Olympiads for Elementary and Middle Schools) competition and students achieving phenomenal results both at the individual and team levels. Every student who completed all the exams achieved a cumulative score among the top 40% of all competing students. Half of the CompuChild team students were ranked in the top 10%. One-fourth of our team members were ranked among the top 5% and one member of the team achieved the most prestigious Dr. George Lenchner award for a perfect score. Overall, the CompuChild team was ranked among the top 10% of all the participating teams within the Elementary division of the tournament.

Established in 1977 by Dr. George Lenchner, MOEMS aims to foster mathematical excellence globally. Contestants are categorized into two divisions. The Elementary division consists of students from grades 4, 5, and 6, and the Middle School division consists of students from grades 6, 7, and 8. Featuring a structured evaluation system, the MOEMS contest presents students with five monthly contests (5 questions each) bringing the total number of problems to 25. These unique problem sets must be administered each month from November through March. In 2024, more than 120,000 students from all around the world (40 countries) participated, showcasing its enduring significance and appeal. The competition's format promotes critical thinking and mathematical creativity, engaging students of all levels. MOEMS serves as a platform to nurture young mathematical talent, laying the groundwork for future achievements in mathematics.

Excited by the achievements of children, CompuChild's North Austin franchisee and Program Director Ms. Hiray commented, "I initiated this effort and encouraged children to participate in the MOEMS contest to spark their interest in math. It's incredibly fulfilling to see children excel in the competition. What's even more heartening is to experience the joy of teamwork that they shared while going through this year-long experience. Our experienced and dedicated teachers created a supportive ecosystem and an inquisitive environment which not only boosted the math skills of our students, but also made learning STEM subjects like math extremely fun and enjoyable. It's clear that when children feel supported and motivated, they thrive and excel together. I am already experiencing the positive effects of this exciting achievement in the community as more and more students are approaching us to participate in this program."

Given the extraordinary performance of the CompuChild team in the MOEMS contest, 18 of the team members were invited to participate in the prestigious 2024 Central Texas Math Tournament, held at the Doss Elementary School in Austin, Texas. These team members participated in various math tournaments at the individual and team levels. CompuChild is proud to announce that our students achieved remarkable success, securing numerous individual awards. At the team level, following intense tie-breaker rounds, one of our three teams tied for first place in the tournament.

Talking about this excellent achievement, the President of CompuChild stated, "At CompuChild, we've always championed the irreplaceable value of in-person education, particularly for young learners. Amidst the rise of AI chatbots and automated responses, it's becoming incrementally hard to determine the true learning that students are acquiring. In light of this, the importance of direct student-educator interaction is becoming ever-so-critical. As a premier STEM franchise, CompuChild is committed to staying at the forefront of fostering interactive relationships between educators and learners. We prioritize maintaining low student-teacher ratios within our in-person classes and have structured our curricula such that we evaluate the progress and learning of students during class time. This approach underscores our commitment to facilitating dynamic and engaging learning experiences, regardless of the educational setting. The performance of our students both at the individual and the team level at the MOEMS is a testament to the diligent work done by our teachers and program directors who have truly kindled an interest for math in these young minds."
