A group of high school students in Rockville, Maryland, have taken their love for math to the next level.
Richard Montgomery High School students Alexander Karbowski, Jerry Shen, Danesh Sivakumar, Tony Wu, and Junzhi Xie entered an international competition focused on using math to solve real-world problems.
The challenge was to use math to find a solution to making internet accessible to all.
And if that seemed a little too easy: The team only had 14 hours to do it virtually.
“For me, [it] opened my mind to how many different ways math can be used beyond just looking at formulas,” said Richard Montgomery senior Shen.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Multiple state agencies are using social media to honor victims of crime in Tennessee.
“All four of these state agencies consider crime victims in everything we do,” said Parole Board Chairman Richard Montgomery. “This week, we want to remind the community that crime victims have an important voice in the criminal justice process and the videos released this week will highlight the many resources that are available to individuals who have been victimized by crime and need our support.”
“On behalf of the more than 6,000 TDOC employees, we pause this week to remember victims of crime and to extend our condolences to every person in Tennessee who has lost a loved one to violence,” said TDOC Commissioner Tony Parker.
