The Math Olympiads Return to BHS!
It's time to cheer on the BHS Bobcats again in this year's Math Olympiads! The Math Olympiads contest was established in 1979 and is one of the most influential and fun-filled math competition programs in the United States and throughout the world, with over 150,000 students from every state and 39 countries participating. The objectives of the Math Olympiads are to teach multiple strategies for out-of-the-box problem-solving, develop mathematical flexibility in solving those problems, and foster mathematical creativity and ingenuity. BHS competes with a 4th-6th grade team and a 7th-8th grade team, each made up of 35 students, selected by Ms. Brown in the lower division and Mrs. Neale in the upper division. There are five contests throughout the year, proctored by Ms. Brown and Mrs. Neale, and top ranking students in each class will be recognized at our final trimester awards ceremony in June. Individual students and teams also have the opportunity to rank internationally, at a gold, silver or bronze level, and it's always exciting for our small school when this takes place. So, please help us cheer on this year's teams as they put on their mathematical reasoning caps and go for the gold!
