The program is intended for middle school students who have mastered the material in their math class, and are ready to tackle higher challenges. The curriculum includes mathematical problem solving, mathematical proof, computer science, and mathematical crafts. There is a focus on hands-on math, teamwork, insightful thinking and mathematical creativity.
The staff is composed of experienced math educators, many of whom majored in mathematics while at Bard College, and teaching assistants who are current undergraduate math majors. Our teaching goals are to expose local middle school students to high-level mathematical thought and topics not frequently encountered at school, and to inspire them to enjoy math and learn more.
