Seneca Valley Intermediate High School freshman Rachel Spear was the first-place winner at Seneca Valley in the Mathematical Association of America’s American Mathematics Competition 10.
Her high score also qualified her to take the American Invitational Mathematics Examination.
The AMC 10 and 12 are the first in a series of competitions that eventually lead to the International Mathematical Olympiad.
Rachel will find out if she advances to the IMO once her national exam is scored later this summer.
