[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid was on a math counts team 4-5 years ago and I remember Frost doing really well back then to. They must have a good coach. I don’t know if TPMS maybe fields multiple teams, so maybe that’s why they have more going to state? For the PP that said they were confused, mathxounts is a long standing national competition where kids compete in teams and as individuals doing math problems that are a bit different than the type of math you do in schools. I went to states back in the mid 1970s, so it’s been around at least since then, although I think the format has changed over the decades. Congrats to all the competitors! This is the sort of thing where everyone who competes really wins. [/quote] Frost is a student-run club. The coaches are a handful of former Frost team member from the past 4 years. (They are now at Blair SMACS.) Please talk to your children and their friends at Blair and other high schools, suggesting they reach out to coach more schools, and new schools. With Zoom, one coaching group can coach a group of students with just a few kids from each of any schools, greatly expanding the positive impact. It's good for SSL hours and coveted T20 college applications. Mathcounts even offers scholarship money to some students who start new school clubs. Mathcounts is a mostly volunteer-run program that survives in the efforts of volunteers of all ages across the country. [/quote] Love this idea![/quote]
