Burroughs student is a problem solver
NORTHWEST DISTRICT -- A John Burroughs High School freshman has
earned an invitation to an international problem-solving competition
after finishing first in a state event.
Joel Newman won his division at the California Future Problem
Solving Program on Saturday at Luther Burbank Middle School.
A total of 30 local middle and high school students competed
individually or as part of a team. A Luther Burbank team finished
second in the competition, during which participants were given a
future scenario to familiarize themselves with and then asked to
formulate solutions, organizers said.
Newman advances to an international competition in June in
Connecticut.
