Catholic Brings Home First Place From Auburn University's AMP'ed Competition for the Third Consecutive Year!


The Montgomery Catholic Middle School participated in the Auburn Mathematical Puzzle Challenge (AMP'ed) this past Saturday, September 13, at Auburn University.  The MCPS team brought home first place for the third year in a row.  

The Montgomery Catholic students who competed were eighth graders Emily Talbot and Isabelle Dubon, and seventh graders Jason Flowers, Ashley Hayes, Savannah Johnson, Scott Nation, Katie Perkins, and Clare Wilson. The team sponsors are Catholic Middle School math teachers Julie Flowers and Tricette Savage. This is the third year that Auburn University has hosted this event, and the third year the Montgomery Catholic Middle School team has come in first place. All of the team members had a fun day together on the Auburn University Campus, using their math skills and coming home with a win.
