Stone Valley Middle School

MathCounts will begin Friday, October 25th from 3-4pm and will run through February. 

Math enthusiasts of all levels are welcome. We are a social club that also enjoys math.

Our meetings are facilitated by several highschoolers and Ms. Nacamu. We will start with a problem set of 5-10 interesting and challenging problems that some students may have never experienced before. We will review some of them and then go into a team round of another 5-10 problems.
