[Kudos] to 20 students who helped make Quail Run Primary School in Pleasant Grove No. 10 in the nation in the 2011 American Math Challenge sponsored by Mathletics. "The students worked really hard and really long," math teacher Curtis Nielson said of the online competition. "It was a team effort that awarded the school this honor." Special kudos to two brothers at the charter school who were the only pupils from Utah to finish in the top 100 individuals: second-grader James Bott, 7, and sixth-grader Deren Bott, 11.
This blog, sponsored by Charter Solutions, highlights the success of charter schools, the movement, and education in general, particularly education reforms that increase parental involvement and local control, provide incentives for innovation and excellence, and reduce the role of bureaucracy in schools.
