Our Computer Science Students Excel at the Canary Islands Olympiad in Informatics and Head to National Competition
Congratulations to our four Computer Science students who have been tirelessly training in preparation for the Canary Islands Olympiad in Informatics. Their hard work paid off as they secured a spot in the top 5 in the competition. One of our students, Iván P, took home the top prize by scoring the maximum number of points in all of the programming tasks. This outstanding achievement has earned him the opportunity to represent the Canary Islands in the national competition taking place in March.
We are incredibly proud of our students for their dedication and determination. Their success is a testament to the power of hard work and perseverance. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for these talented young individuals!
Well done to Pablo, Liliia, Cheng Kang and Iván on this outstanding achievement.
