EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On April 16, 2008, the districtwide Middle School Math League Competition will be held for students to compete in grade-level teams for both team and individual awards. Responding to challenging mathematical problems, students must strategize independently, as well as, cooperatively, within a team. To prepare for competition, students practice throughout the school year with a teacher-coach. Approximately 550 students will participate in the Math League competitions to win trophies for their schools and for themselves.
The agreement cost of $5,125.02 includes facilities rental, chairs/tables setup, security, and utilities. A PEPSI sponsorship of $4,825 provides gift certificates for the top five teams and the top five individual students.
