The 2005 LA county Math field day was well conducted at the Torrence High
School. Several dozens of teams from 4th through 8th grade participated. Since
this competition does not lead to a higher level competition, they do not
declare overall grades. Instead, they give medals to the top performing teams
in each of the five areas; reasoning, number sense, algebra, geometry, and
statistics. Jay's team (made of Alex, Anton and Emma besides himself) won
medals in all categories. The other three 5th grade teams that got medals in
all five were: Palos Verdes, Burbank, and Walnut Valley.
