Math Contest 2011 Winners
The Math Contest is a county-wide competition for 5-8th grade students in Santa Cruz County. Now in its 45th year, the contest provides students with both a team competition and an individual test format.
The team competition requires students work together using problem-solving strategies, showing work and providing clear and detailed explanations. The individual test for all grade levels uses a free response format. The 8th grade test includes questions that reflect state requirements for 8th grade Algebra.
Students receive certificates of participation and contest winners receive achievement medals and special awards for the top three winners.
Winners will be announced on the web site on Tuesday, May 8, 2012.
Awards ceremony on Tuesday, May 22, 2012, at the Santa Cruz County Office of Education.
