Issaquah High Students Crack the Code to Programming Problems Thirteen teams of Issaquah High School students participated in the winter 2014 programming competition hosted by the Puget Sound Computer Science Teachers Association and sponsored by the Technology Education and Literacy in School (TEALS) program. The students competed against 125 teams at the Microsoft and University of Washington campuses. Teams were split into two divisions: Novice, for those currently taking their first programming class; and Advanced, for those with previous experience. Both divisions were given three hours to solve nineteen challenging programming problems as fast as possible. “The IHS teams performed quite well,” shared Brett Wortzman, Issaquah High School Computer Science Teacher. “We had 10 teams finish the event having solved at least one of the programming problems.” Top performers from IHS included the team of Ethan Chau, Austin Zhao, and Thomas Chin, who took second place in the Novice Division, Trevor Morton and McKinley Melton earned 10th place in the Advanced Division, Caroline Moore and Spencer Tickman who earned 13th in Advanced Division, and Elizabeth Moore and Brian Hanner who earned 6th in Novice Division.
