The solution for each problem names the strategy required. Many solutions include follow-up problems and activities. After each contest, results are mailed to us for scorekeeping. Our records will determine which awards are to be shipped after the last contest. Each team has up to 35 students.
Many schools have more than one team.
Only schools or homeschool associations, not individuals, may participate. Each team competes in just one division. The team score is the sum of the ten highest individual scores, taken after the fifth contest. The high scorer of each team receives a trophy. Each student who achieves a perfect score of 25 points receives a bronze medallion.
