Math Olympiads

Math Olympiads take place during Lunch and Recess

2023 -2024

As part of Lunch Time Enrichment, all interested students will have the opportunity to participate in the Math Olympiads Competitions. 

  • Math Olympiads are a set of five contests offered once a month from November through March.
  • Olympiads take place during lunch and recess time.
  • Each thirty-minute contest consists of five challenging math problems. 
  • The children compete against themselves, as well as against students from all over the nation and the world.
  • Sixth graders participate in Division E.
  • Seventh and Eighth graders participate in Division M.
  • Bring your lunch and a pencil at the start of the period you are assigned lunch and recess.
  • Students are asked to sign up for the Olympiads so we know how many to expect. Sign up begins the week of October 7.
  • We advise students to commit to attending all five contests, otherwise their final score will be 20% lower for each contest they miss. Come to Room 8, Flower Hill Building during Lunch or Recess to sign up.
