The School MathCounts Competition is less than a week away (Monday, Dec. 12). Medals and trophies have arrived. There is a first place trophy and 2nd and 3rd place medals for each grade level. I expect we will end up with close to 70 students competing. About the top 15, including some from each grade level, will continue training as part of the Smith MathCounts Team. The MathCounts Club will be over for this year for the rest of us.
MathCounts will last longer than normal that day...we will finish around 5:00. The Awards Ceremony will be held about 4:45.
We will have refreshments and a small party after the contest (while the tests are being scored in a back room) followed by a short awards ceremony.
We need some parent help with:
- bring in refreshments (drinks, salty snacks, sweet snacks, paper plates, plastic cups, paper towels)
- supervising students in library from 4:00 - 5:00
- scoring tests
Please email me if you can help with any of this. Thanks!
