About Us

The Mission of the program is...

To deliver to exceptional mathematics students a curriculum that challenges them in the same way that standard school curricula challenges students of lesser ability.
To positively serve this subset of exceptional students (which even the largest schools cannot serve adequately).
To place emphasis on providing skills for students who may pursue future university work in mathematics, other sciences, or the humanities; rather than on the development of professional mathematicians.
To capture the interest of young scholars at a critical time in their development.
To cultivate positive attitudes toward serious academic endeavors.
To encourage development of good work habits.
To improve our students' willingness and ability to address more difficult and extended problems.
To read and learn from mathematical writing.
For students to compete with students of their own ability.
To stay the course.
