What we do: The Math Team is a group of 6th, 7th, and 8th graders who want to come together to learn challenging math in number theory, algebra, geometry, and arithmetic and then compete and socialize with peers from other towns throughout the school year. It is a great way to learn, have fun, earn extra-credit, and represent your school in a positive way.
