Mrs. Wade and her ACSI Math League winners display their
ribbons, medallions and award plaque.
The top math winners are (L-R): Saxon
Hunt, 9th grade – 1st
Place Geometry, Darcy Stickney, 8th
grade - 1st Place
Pre-Algebra and Nathan Neri, 8th Grade – Algebra I. These students competed against top ACSI
Northern California schools from Danville, Roseville, Carmichael and
other locations. Mrs. Wade holds the 1st Place
Award plaque for the highest scoring Pre-Algebra class in the competition
(see the pre-algebra class student names in the April 26 Gate). Well done Mrs. Wade and students! There’s no doubt that the Gateway math
