Mathnasium wants to distinguish students for their hard work in the classroom. Our third annual TriMathlon strives to not only rouse children’s excitement in a contest of mathematical skills, but for parents and teachers alike, underscore the necessity of math education in the United States. At Mathnasium, we believe in the importance of working together with teachers, parents and schools to help the students in our community succeed.
