OGDEN — Congratulations are in order for St. Joseph Catholic High School and Dennis Kunimura.
The American Mathematics Competitions program of the Mathematical Association of America annually sponsors a pair of challenging mathematics contest at the high school level, the AMC 10 and the AMC 12. St. Joseph Catholic High School, Ogden, and its mathematics teachers have participated in these challenging contests for at least the last two years.
As a result of St. Joseph High’s improvement in performance from the 2005 AMC contest to the 2006 AMC contest, St. Joseph’s is the State/Provincial Winner of the 2006 Pedagoguery Award.
One award goes to the school in each state or province with the best team score on the AMC 10, and also to the school in each state or province with the best difference in team score on the AMC 12 from 2006 to 2006.
The actual award is a set of die-cast aluminum mathematical models of the five platonic solids and three additional truncated platonic solids. This award is provided courtesy of Pedagoguery Software Inc. of 4446 Lazelle Avenue, Terrace, British Columbia, Canada V8C 1R8.
Through the generosity of Pedagoguery Software, Inc, the America Mathematics Competitions is making this award to stimulate continued year-to-year interest in the AMC contests, and to reward teachers who coach their teams to greater levels of achievement of the contests and in mathematics generally.
Congratulations to St. Joseph Catholic High School, Ogden, and your mathematics teachers for making it happen.
