Our Stellar Scholars Shine at PSIA Competition!

Not only did all of our participating students place in the competition, but seven students are now headed to the State Meet on April 25.

St. Andrew’s students were top competitors in 35 contest categories spanning math, science, language arts, speech, social studies, and fine arts. (Scroll down to see the complete list of final results.) St. Andrew’s was one of nine Austin-area schools competing in the District 8-AA group at Regents School.

St. Andrew’s parent Swapna Mutyala remarks, “It was a great and highly enriching experience for my daughter Jiya.” Second-grader Jiya, along with first-grader James Graham, took first place in their Creative Writing contests, earning them a spot at the State competition. Michelle Natinsky, whose son Joshua placed fifth for Number Sense, remarks, “These students worked so hard to represent our school!” Colleen Kell, who coordinated St. Andrew’s participation in the event, adds to the accolades, “Our students were impressive, and we’re all so very proud of them.”

The PSIA Academic State Meet for AA Districts will be held at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth on April 25, 2015. We look forward to hearing more good news from our stellar scholars! Go Cru!
