Math Team looks to build for new winning formula

After years of consistent performance  from veteran mathletes, the Math Team looks to revamp this year with a slightly altered message.

Math teacher and coach Kristin Johnson said the team is trying to appeal to more recruits this year as they rebuild from a loss of seniors in recent years.

“The last couple years have been rebuilding, so we are really trying to get back to the success that we have had in the past,” Johnson said.

The Math Team will cater not only to students who enjoy math classes during the school day, but also those who are looking for a boost on their resume as they look toward their future.

Additionally, she said this could be an important point as they look for new recruits.

“Among other things, Math Team is very influential on a kid’s college resume, as it shows it shows interest in academic extracurriculars,” Johnson said.
