All of Your K–8 Students and Families Can Have Fun
Doing Math Together at a CMC Math Festival!

A Math Festival is a powerful, cost-effective way to bring all of your students, teachers, and families together to experience a problem-solving based math fair. A Math Festival is not an assembly on the stage—we set up a dozen or more multi-grade activities in your multi-use room with tons of hands-on materials.

Your Math Festival Will Require NO EXTRA WORK for Your Teachers!
With the assistance of just one of your teacher-leaders, we do it all and bring everything you need for a successful school-wide math event. Your student Math Festival and Family Math Festival will be two of the easiest events your school has ever held!

Your Math Festival Can Generate Parent Support for Your Math Programs!
A Mathematics Festival can provide meaningful parent outreach and direct involvement as required by state and federal programs and is perfect for Title 1, PTA/PTO, and foundation funding because ALL your students, ALL your teachers, and ALL your families are directly involved in challenging activities for all ability levels from kindergarten to adult.
