Math Counts Club
Fairfield Middle School is participating in the Math Counts Club. There is no need to sign up because all students can participate in the math club by completing the monthly challenges. Each month a new monthly challenge will be posted for students to answer. If you answer the 5 questions correctly you will be able to select a gift out the grab bag. There will be a total of 6 monthly challenges and students who get 5 of the 6 monthly challenges correct will move to the "Ultimate Challenge". Students participating in the "Ultimate Challenge" need to make at least an 80%. All student who participate help our school move through the 3 stages of Bronze Level, Silver Level, and Gold Lev el. Hopefully, our school will make it to the Gold Level. All students who participate will be eligible for various prizes. So, who is up to the challenge?
