STATEWIDE MATH AND SCIENCE COMPETITION
Middle and high school students compete within local
partners, some at a regional level as well, by taking
tests in several areas of mathematics and science. Winners
participate in the statewide competition. Coaching
sessions are used locally to improve students' test-taking
skills as well as math/science competence. Statewide
participants receive a TAME T-Shirt and are eligible
for a variety of awards. Establishing success patterns
for minority and female students in math and science
is a high priority of the program, and the phrase
that "EVERY statewide participant is a winner"
is repeated often. The 2010 Math & Science Competition
will be held on April 9th-10th at the University of Houston.
