A Friends Select School upper school computer science team earned third place at the Philadelphia Classic Programming Contest at University of Pennsylvania on February 21. The team, composed of juniors Haydn D. and Jenny S., and seniors Miles F. and Nick H-B, competed with school teams throughout the greater Delaware Valley and New York City to answer eight programming questions using the computer language Java. Using only one computer per team, 4-member teams were awarded points for correct responses and speed was used to break any ties.
