Our Math-a-thon motivates our students to review the topics they learned during the school year while striving to achieve their personal and academic math goals.
For 3K, Pre-K, Kindergarten, Grades 1 and 2, the math problems generally follow the curriculum taught in classes.
For Grades 3, 4, and 5, the math questions will match the types of problems found on the NYS math exam.
