The NBMS MathCounts team is made up of students who exhibit a love for and a
proficiency in mathematics. MATHCOUNTS® is a national math enrichment,
coaching and competition program that promotes middle school
mathematics achievement through grassroots involvement in every U.S.
state and territory. With over 23 years experience, MATHCOUNTS is one of
the most successful education partnerships involving volunteers,
educators, industry sponsors, and students.
After several months
of coaching, participating schools select students to compete
individually or as part of a team in one of the more than 500 written
and oral competitions held nationwide and in U.S. schools overseas.
Winners at the local level proceed to state competitions, where the top 4
Mathletes® and top coach earn the right to represent their state or
territory at the national level. At all levels, MATHCOUNTS challenges
students' math skills, develops their self-confidence and rewards them
for their achievements.
