TCGIS Mathe-team

The TCGIS Math team offers regular practices and opportunities to compete against other schools in the Twin Cities metropolitan area. The team is open to all 6-8th grade TCGIS middle school students of all abilities, and caters to students that are interested in additional mathematical challenges beyond what they are experiencing in class. Math team meets weekly from mid-September through the first Friday in March for an hour and a half. 

In practices, students learn tips and strategies for solving common mathematical contest problems and hone their skills in mock competitions.  They gain the tools to persevere in the face of challenge and build the confidence needed to tackle a problem that they may not have seen before.
