MathCounts is a math enrichment
program for students who enjoy solving challenging problems in algebra,
geometry, probability, number theory, and other branches of mathematics.
Mathcounts also expands students' understanding of math concepts and
processes beyond topics covered in the curriculum.
MathCounts members practice weekly in preparation for a series of
competitions at local, state, and national levels.
In addition to meeting every Thursday after school in Room 307 with
Ms. Sarah
Manchester
and Mr.Justin Fraser,
the team meets about one Saturday per month for three hours to work through
sample competitions. Though
students are highly competitive and serious about what they do, they also
enjoy MathCounts. The Takoma Park team has consistently won the local and
state Mathcounts competitions. Every
year, there are a several members from our school who qualify to represent
Maryland at the national competition. All students are welcome to join us for an enriching and
challenging mathematical experience.
