MATHCOUNTS

Students who love math need to be challenged. Students who fear math need ways to improve. Teachers need the tools to help every student. MATHCOUNTS can help!

 

MATHCOUNTS consists of two main programs:

MATHCOUNTS Competition Series: the premiere math competition for middle school (6th-8th grade) students in the United States. Students can progress competitively through four levels: school, chapter, state and national. There are 23 local chapters in Texas available to register for and compete in.

The National Math Club: designed to provide the structure, resources, and incentives to make it easy for any teacher to run their own math club. This program is FREE to join!
