Golden Gate American School Holds Math Contest to Promote Math Study

PHNOM PENH: Golden Gate American School (GGAS) organized a math competition program called the 'Golden Gate American Math Contest', which students from other general education schools across the country were also able to participate in. The competition ran for two days from 8-9 April 2023.

Vice principal of GGAS, Heng Tola, said that this is the second time the school has organized this math contest and allowed students from various public and private schools across the country to join in. He said this competition is organized to help promote the study of mathematics.

"This is the second time that the school has organized this math competition for students from grades 1 to 11 from general education schools across the country, both public and private, in order to provide support and encourage the students who have worked hard to study, especially in mathematics," he said.

The final results of the contest were announced at ceremony hosted in the GGAS auditorium on Sunday, 9 April, with many parents in attendance.

GGAS 11th grade student and silver medal winner, Mark William, said he was happy with his result but would work harder in the future to win a gold medal. William added that he had already competed in this competition once before and won a bronze medal back then.


Another GGAS 11th grader, Tuy Sokkanann, won a gold medal as well as a 70% scholarship. He said he was very happy to win gold, especially since last time he had won silver.


Huyva Sethapitou, another GGAS 11th grade student, also won a gold medal and expressed great happiness and excitement because in the last competition, he had only won a bronze medal.


"The [contest] was not too that hard, but at the same time it was not easy, it was just normal," said student Sethapitou. "I suggest people just practice doing problem solving [and] just practice math, just [practice] a lot of times, eventually you’ll get used to it."

The prizes for the 'Golden Gate American Math Contest' included two 100% tuition scholarships, two waived registration fees for the final round in America, and two iPads. These awards were given to the top scorers in categories one and two. The top category scorers were students Sok Lyta and Bo Lyshaing.

There were also 30% to 70% tuition scholarships given to the top three students in each grade, medals (gold, silver and bronze) as well as certificates given to other outstanding students, and the opportunity to compete in the final round later this year in New York.

The Principal of GGAS emphasized that he hopes this math competition will bring greater benefits to students, families and wider society.
