Centennial competed in the Georgia Tech High School Mathematics Competition Saturday, February 15^th!  Our team was made up of 8 students from the Math Special Projects Seminar and other math enthusiasts!  Over 300 students from across Georgia competed!  After a difficult multiple choice round, made up by Georgia Tech math grad students, only 70 students advanced, including our very own Justin Htay.  Justin then competed in a ciphering round and a proof-based round!  He received one of the highest proof-based scores in the competition, launching him into 9^th place overall for individual scores!
