Math Counts

New This Year at SJS
SJS will be offering a 7th and 8th grade weekly Math Club, using a renowned program called MathCounts. Club members will work with peers and our own Math Coach (Mrs. Brenda Hart) to expand their math knowledge, sharpen their math skills, explore a variety of math topics, learn to work as a team to solve problems, and HAVE FUN! The Math Club at SJS will include two of MATHCOUNTS’ programs into its meetings: + MATHCOUNTS Competition Series: All registered club members will have an opportunity to participate at a school level competition in January, and SJS will send a team of up to 10 selected members to the local Chapter competition in February (and possibly advance to State or National competitions!) + NATIONAL MATH CLUB, powered by MATHCOUNTS: Club members enjoy math in a non-competitive, new, and different way from the typical “textbook math” using fun and unique math games and activities!

WHO: Open to interested 7th and 8th grade SJS students

WHEN: Tuesdays, 3:15-4:15pm Student Information Meeting - Tuesday Sept. 26th Regular Tuesday weekly meetings begin on Oct. 10, 2017
