Congratulations to all the winners of the 1st Annual Presa Math Bee! Students from Kindergarten through 5th grade proudly represented their classrooms, with 1st through 3rd place finalists competing in a fast-paced math showdown. Using the Interactive Display Board, these young mathematicians tackled timed problems with focus and determination. A few close ties added to the excitement and were settled the classic way—with paper and pencil. We are so proud of all our finalists for their hard work, courage, and impressive math skills. Good luck to our 1st place winners as they go on to represent Presa at the District Level, competing against other schools in the Ysleta district! A quick shout out to Mrs. Adriana Garcia, Presa's Math/Science Instructional Coach for making this happen! Thank you to all our teachers for dedicating time on Friday's to help the students prepare.
