Math Enrichment

The after-school math enrichment class is an opportunity for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students who want to extend their math skills. Students will learn fun problem-solving strategies and easy math tricks that they can use to solve logic math puzzles, critical puzzles, and higher-level math questions.

Classes are taught by Mr. Kerr (4th grade teacher), in Room 21, on Mondays and Thursdays from 3 – 4 p.m. Classes are held three times a year (Fall, Winter, and Spring). If you are interested, please contact Mr. Kerr through email ed.kerr@sesd.org. Or you can bring him a completed application form and payment.
