Ste. Genevieve R-II Students Participate in Online Math Competition

On Saturday, April 4, several Ste. Genevieve R-II students competed in the MoCTM Regional Mathematics competition. However, this year, the competition was moved online, so that students could participate from home while practicing social distancing. Despite the added stress of moving the competition to an online format, our students performed well and made their teachers proud!
