It's Mathematics and Statistics Awareness Month!

April is Mathematics and Statistics Awareness Month. Since it began as Mathematics Awareness Week back in 1986, the aim has been to increase the level of interest in the study of mathematics and also increase the level of public understanding and appreciation for the wide range of applications for mathematics in fields as diverse as manufacturing, business and medicine.

The Green Hills Math Team would love for you to engage in math learning this summer:
