Saturday, November 15, 1-3pm. Math Circle, including puzzles and games, challenging problems, and a hands-on project that students can take home. We help students strengthen their critical thinking skills and make math more fun.

Tuesday, November 18, 4-7pm. The AMC 8. This Contest contains engaging math problems that are challenging at the middle school level. The exam is intended to inspire, promote enthusiasm, and a healthy attitude towards mathematics. Students will be exposed to the richness of middle school level mathematics at a deeper level than ordinarily encountered in the schools. And after the exam, students will be treated to an engaging math talk from a Bard math professor.

Each of these events is free, but students must register in advance. A registration form will be posted on this page in September. If you’d like us to email you the announcement for when registration opens, please send us a friendly email to bardmathcircle@gmail.com.
