Mathcounts teaches thinking strategies, creativity, and problem solving skills after school to 5th-8th graders. Students enjoy snacks, play math speed games, work individually and in groups, and most importantly, wrestle with challenging word problems which require close attention to detail.
The club meets every Thursday from last dismissal until 4:15p.m. in Room 18 of Frey Hall. They also have four Saturday Mathcounts sessions planned where students will participate in a practice competition, eat pizza, and hangout at the Youth House.
Our top 10 mathematicians compete at LSU against 8-10 teams from other schools, both public and private. If we finish in the top three, four students will travel to Pineville, LA to compete in the state competition.
Ms. Karen Dartez is our faculty moderator for Mathcounts.
