RE students excel on national math test
Four RE math students scored in the top one percent in the nation on American Math Competitions exams to advance in a prestigious national math competition. Dylan Tie-Shue '20 and Stephen Garrett '20 advanced after taking the American Mathematics Competition 12 test; Alex van Lidth '22 and Sofia Paraoulaki de Miranda '23 advanced after taking the AMC 10. They excelled among some 300,000 students from 6,000 schools.
The students from RE's math team advanced to the American Invitational Mathematics Exam March 11, a significant rung on the ladder to the International Math Olympiad. Middle schooler Solon Sun '25 also advanced to the AIME, finishing in the top 25 percent of the AMC 10. Sun also earned RE’s highest score on the AME 8, a middle-school exam whose results were announced in December. He and Victoria Paraoulaki de Miranda ’24 each finished in the top five percent of test takers nationwide on that test.
In other news, Tie-Shue earned fourth overall in the Essner Math Competition, an annual event at the University of Miami. The upper school math team members work under Karen Key; the middle schoolers under Ginny Onorati.
