SMS has participated in Math Counts, a national competition for middle
school students sponsored by the Myakka Valley Engineering Society. While
only 7th and 8th graders may participate in the competition, it is a great
way for students to be exposed to a variety of math topics via questions.
Mrs. Long, an SMS staff member is the sponsor and is encouraging 6th grade
students to become involved early--and therefore be really ready for
competition with other local middle school students.
I would encourage students to participate and sharpen their math and reading
skills. Meetings are on Tuesday mornings at 8:15. Students may get
specific information from Mrs. Robins at any time.
Be a Math-a-lete----join Math Counts.
