Middle School Math Olympiad

Head Coach: Ms. Duzyol

In the Middle School Math Olympiad Club, students will receive enhanced instruction, explore real contest challenges, and will get a chance to compete as a Math Olympiad team member. The purpose is to promote enriched critical thinking and nurture mathematical talents in our youth through more logic-based problems and creative problem solving strategies with ease and efficiency. Math Olympiad functions much like a football or soccer team, requiring preparation, commitment, coaching and practice throughout the year! These math problems stimulate the mind, enhance pattern recognition, and require logical reasoning capabilities. Students will extend their mathematical knowledge and critical thinking skills acquired in the math classroom with the assistance of the coach, who will guide students through math contest problems during the weekly practices. Math Olympians will be selected from the applicants who apply during the first week of the school. Math course placement, Math MAP score, and prior competition experience are part of the admission criteria. This club includes intense focus on Math competitions, including but not limited to AMC 8 contest, Math League, Math Counts, and many other math competitions.
