The Math Department annually hosts the Merten Hasse Math Competition for area junior high and high school students. Schools earn points for each student who places in the top ten of the division exams. Participating schools are divided into one of two categories: Large Schools and Small Schools. 

Team Competition

Your school may bring up to five teams, with each team consisting of up to four students. The team competition consists of ten questions and puzzles. Please pre-register the number of teams competing; this enables the presenters to have an accurate amount of materials prepared.
