Xiule Fan is Clearly in His Element

Recent Fountain Academy graduate, Xiule Fan, wrote the Chem News Exam, sponsored by the University of Waterloo, in May of his Grade 12 year.  Through the Chem 13 News magazine we received confirmation that he placed 137th in the world. To give you some sense of his accomplishment, 2,203 students wrote the prestigious exam worldwide.  1,833 students wrote the exam in Canada and Fan placed 56th in that auspicious group placing him within the top 3% in the country.  Congratulations to him and to his Chemistry teacher, Bill Druker.  This is a significant accomplishment.
