Mason High School junior Sruthi Parthasarathi finished in the Bronze category of the 2018 Math Prize for Girls Olympiad, sponsored and organized by the Advantage Testing Foundation.
"Sruthi was excited to compete in this particular competition, because it was restructured to truly compare the mathematical abilities of high school females across the country," shared MHS math teacher Colleen Everett. "Sruthi, of course, is very humble in terms of how talented she really is at mathematical skills and her critical and analytical abilities. The results from this competition provide proof of her overall talent as an individual."
