Press release RSM Math Club and MOEMS Our school's math club meets weekly for one hour. Club members explore a topic or strategy in depth, using the text Creative Problem Solving in School Mathematics (or other sources), or they practice for the contests using non-routine problems. The highlights for students are the five monthly contests, administered from November to March. No traveling is required. These contests provide an incentive for students to intensify their study of math. At RSM we have two teams: one for elementary school students (grades 4, 5, 6) and one for middle school students (grades 7 and 8). Every team can have up to 35 members. The team is made up of 12 students that are taking a class sponsored by our school and the rest of the team is made up of the students participating in Math Circle classes. The members of the sponsored team are selected after 3 rounds of tests. The first round takes place during the regular algebra classes, with a test administered for RSM students recommended by their teachers. The participants in the next two rounds are invited personally based on the scores from the previous round. About MOEMS: Created in 1977, the Math Olympiads (MOEMS) officially began in 1979. Last year 150,000 students from 6,000 teams worldwide participated in the Olympiads. 49 of the 50 states and approximately 30 other countries were represented. (More at www.moems.org)
