The Department of Mathematical Sciences will host our Twelfth Annual AMC8 Middle School Math Day on Saturday, January 21, 2023. This year, our program will return to an In-Person format. There will be a limit of 100 participants with a parent or teacher. Please note that is will be a computerized version of the AMC8, so emails are needed for all attendees. Students will be taken to a computer lab for the AMC8 contest.
The program will begin with the AMC-8 Competition , a contest sponsored by the Mathematical Association of America. Students in grades 6, 7 and 8 were encouraged to participate in the AMC-8. High scoring students will be invited to participate in the AMC 10 Contest in November 2023.
After lunch, our Math Day fun will continue where all students will participate in a team contest, led by our very own Dr. Tomas Schonbek.
