Four PRISMS Students Invited to Prestigious Olympiad Summer Camps

Four exceptional PRISMS students have been invited to participate in the prestigious summer camps, marking the final stage of the US Math, Computing, and Chemistry Olympiads. In this stage, the top 4-6 students in each subject are selected to represent the United States in their respective International Olympiads. These students are among the highest achievers in the nation, with just a few dozen individuals being chosen for each subject's summer camp annually.

We invite you to join us in congratulating these outstanding students on their achievements and wishing them the best of luck at the upcoming camps.

Here are the details of our exceptional students and their respective camps:

Sophia Z (Class of '26): Invited to the 2023 Mathematical Olympiad Program (MOP), June 4-28, at Carnegie Mellon University.

Kevin Z (Class of '25): Invited to the 2023 USA Computing Olympiad Summer Training Camp, May 25 - June 3 at Clemson University. ​​

Eva Z (Class of '26): Invited to the 2023 USA Computing Olympiad Summer Training Camp, May 25 - June 3 at Clemson University. ​​

David L (Class of '24): Invited to the 2023 US National Chemistry Olympiad Study Camp, June 4-17, at the University of Maryland.​​

In addition to the four students invited to the summer camps, we would like to highlight several other students who have achieved outstanding academic recognition in the US competitions this school year:​​

In the field of Mathematics, Cedric, Felicity, Peter Wang, Kevin Zhou, David Lee, and Jack participated in the 2023 USA Mathematical Olympiad (USAMO) after excelling in the AMC 10/12 and the American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME). Among them, Cedric was awarded Silver, while Felicity, Peter Wang, and Kevin Zhou received Honorable Mentions in the 2023 USAMO.​

Turning to Physics, Meric, Taven, and Kevin Zhou qualified for the 2023 USA Physics Olympiad (USAPhO). Meric, in particular, distinguished himself by winning a gold medal in the 2023 USAPhO.​

In Chemistry, Jonathan Hai and Carnegie qualified for the 2023 US National Chemistry Olympiad (USNCO) - National Exam, with Jonathan earning the Honors Award (placing him in the top 150 participants nationally) in the 2023 USNCO.

Lastly, in the area of Biology, Jonathan Yang and Justin qualified to participate in the 2023 USA Biology Olympiad (USABO) Semifinal Exam.

We extend our heartiest congratulations to all these students and express our deepest gratitude to their teachers and mentors who have guided them on this journey.
