We are united with the people of Ukraine and the international community in condemning the Russian military’s invasion of Ukraine and the horrific acts of violence against a sovereign nation and its people.  We stand alongside the people of Ukraine in their resistance to the Russian forces as they fight for the self-governing rights of their country.  We pray for the safety of all people in the impacted regions; that the people affected have the strength and resources to make it through this trying time, and that there will be a peaceful resolution to this senseless conflict.  

Mr. Dale led his students on an exploration of  mathematics without the use of numbers! Starting with Mobius strips (a piece of paper that has only one side), students verified that the paper had only one side (surface) and then made predictions about what would happen if you cut the Mobius strip lengthwise once, and then cut lengthwise a second time.  They explored a famous puzzle called the Bridges of Konigsburg - which helped lay the foundation for areas of Mathematics such as graph theory and topology, and also discussed the mathematics of soap bubbles and used a cubic prism to produce a tesseract with soapy water.  Students also learned a game called Reversi which requires strategy and analysis of patterns to defeat the opponent.

The Massachusetts Academy of Mathematics and Science is pleased to acknowledge the important contribution that has been made to the education of its students by teachers who have taught them in prior schools and classrooms. Juniors are asked to identify teachers who have played a significant role in their education.  MathAltitude lead teacher, Nathan Senecal, was honored at a special luncheon at the Mass Academy of Math and Science.  
  

to long-time teachers, Nathan Senecal and Liubov Smirnov, who were honored at our End of Year Award Celebration.

Our WPI Night of Engineering was an enormous success! It was a spectacular and exciting evening of engineering demos, video presentations, plus an informative and helpful financial session and materials for parents and students. Our audience was very impressed with the presentation by the IEEE Student Section members from WPI.

Alex Briskman, President of the WPI IEEE Student Branch, treated students to an up close and personal tour of the Atwater Kent Laboratories at WPI as a  follow-up to our WPI Night at MathAltitude. View the pictures of the projects in action!

Professor Rose engaged students in some "math fun".  He challenged students and parents to think about what they hear and read, and to use what they know about math to analyze what they see.
