    Math League: This is the official PFMS site dedicated to Math League! Math League is open to all students who enjoy math - no prior experience is needed. Explore below and the tabs on the left for more information. We hope to start the IMLEM season in mid to late October but are still finalizing details (even regarding whether competitions can be in-person or will need to be held virtually). 

    Practices are from 3:45 to 4:45 some Wednesday afternoons in the PFMS commons. Expected start date is October 20, 2021

    Math Madness: Math Madness is a casual and informal competition program.  Mr. Ahearn will be running it this year, so if you want more information, feel free to email him at [email protected]

    Mathcounts: Mathcounts is a club for our most serious and dedicated mathletes.  Each year, we work hard to advance to the state and even to the national competition.  We are able to bring 12 students to our first competition. The school tryout will be on Friday, December 3, in the MNMS library from 4 - 7 pm.  If you join Mathcounts, you should expect to do extra competition math independently for approximately one hour per night as well as attend practices (most likely in Room 226 at MNMS) on Friday afternoons from 4:00-6:00) beginning December 10 through mid-March.  It’s a lot of work, but an absolutely amazing experience!  This year, Mathcounts is hoping to hold in-person competitions, but are reserving the possibility that they will be virtual depending on the state of the pandemic. You can also check out the official Mathcounts website to learn more about this program.
