Twenty students from Lynbrook North and South middle schools recently sharpened their problem-solving skills by voluntarily tackling an advanced math challenge, the AMC 8 exam. 

The AMC 8 is an exciting 25-question, 40-minute multiple-choice exam that provides the opportunity for students to develop a love for analytical thinking and mathematics, which can pave the way for future career success. In a supportive and friendly environment, students tackle unique problem-solving challenges using their classroom knowledge.

Covering a wide range of topics from the middle school math curriculum, the AMC 8 includes counting and probability, estimation, proportional reasoning, elementary geometry like the Pythagorean Theorem, spatial visualization, everyday applications and interpreting graphs and tables.

For the second year in a row, Lynbrook middle school students have been selected to compete in this prestigious national exam, showcasing their mathematical prowess. Every participant received a certificate of participation. The district congratulates top scorers Sofia Soroka from North Middle School and Timmy Ezagui from South Middle School. 

From North, talented participants include Devin Georgoulas, Leo Krokoff, Christian Cueto, Marcello Malcangi, Vera Saccone, Lucas Pollin, Shannon Clausen, Owen Ceglie and Sophia Goumennyi. Representing South are Julia Jin, Asher Stukov, Gabrielle Lerner, Sebastian Lerner, Antonio Kret, Rhys Murphy, Matthew Ambery, Audrey Bauer and Kaydie Fine.

The Lynbrook community’s annual tradition continued at North Middle School on March 11 as the ALS Ride for Life Foundation visited the school to usher the start of their fundraising campaign.

Each year, the Lynbrook Schools community fundraises in support of the Ride for Life Foundation’s mission to promote research of treatments for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS, a fatal motor neuron disease. Ride for Life volunteer Glenn Baldwin spoke with North Middle students about the disease and the struggles of living with ALS, inspiring students to help find a cure. The audience was also joined via video by ALS patient Paul Weisman who thanked the community for their support. Last year, North Middle was named a Lou Gehrig Legacy School for their participation in the annual campaign.
