Extreme Math! Saturday Series at the Robinson Center April 2 – May 28, 2011

The Robinson Center for Young Scholars is delighted to continue our very successful Extreme

Math! Saturday Series. This spring, we will offer a number of classes for various age groups: 2nd-

3rd graders, 4th-5th graders, and 8th-12th graders. The goal of this program is simple: to provide

students in the Puget Sound region with an inspirational, challenging, and unique math

experience.

Beyond age/grade specifications, there are no criteria for admission, though some classes have

prerequisites in order for students to make the most of the class. The only absolute requirement is

that the student is interested and WANTS to do this.

Registration is on a first-come-first-served basis, and full tuition is required within five days of

registration; students’ places in class will not be finalized without full payment.  Checks are to be

made out to the University of Washington.  Unfortunately, at this time we cannot accept credit

cards for this program.  Register online at our website starting Monday March 7 at 8 a.m.

Classes will be held at the Robinson Center on the University of Washington campus:  Guthrie

Annex 2.  (See http://depts.washington.edu/cscy/about-us/contact-us/ and
