Earlier this week our students in grades 5-8 finished the fourth and final round of the Martin Luther College Meet Math competition. Students are given six questions to complete within a 25-minute time limit. Calculators are allowed for this competition, but they often don't help due to the complexity of the problems.

If you are able, please attend and encourage them as they profess their faith in front of the congregation and have their first communi...
