The MATHCOUNTS Competition Series is a national program that provides students the opportunity to compete in live, in-person contests against and alongside their peers. Created in 1983, it is the longest-running MATHCOUNTS program and is open to all sixth-, seventh- and eighth-grade students.  Math topics range from basic elementary math through Geometry.

Practices will be conducted in a manner that prepares school representatives for the competition.

The Competition Series has 4 levels of competition—school, Chapter (district), State and National.   Chapter, State and National competitions consist of 4 rounds—Sprint, Target, Team and Countdown Round. Altogether the rounds are designed to take about 3 hours to complete.
