In the Grades 10–12 competition, students from Berkeley Springs High School earned fourth alternate, second alternate, and tenth place. By finishing in the top ten in the Grades 10–12 division, our tenth-place finisher qualified to participate in State Math Field Day, which will be held at WV Wesleyan on April 18.
