April 2009
On April 21, 2009, approximately 338 middle school and high school students from Upper Cumberland schools participated in the 53rd Annual Tennessee Mathematics Teachers' Association Mathematics Contest on the TTU Campus.
From 9:30 a.m. until 11:00 a.m. students were tested in one of the following six areas: Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Precalculus, Statistics, and Calculus with Advanced Topics. At 1:00 p.m. in Derryberry Hall Auditorium, the top ten scorers in each subject were announced. The top three scorers in each subject were presented plaques and Certificates of Merit. The top scorer in each testing category received an additional award from the TTU Mathematics Department.
The 54th Annual State-Wide Mathematics Contest is tentatively planned for April 20, 2010. If you are a student at an Upper Cumberland school and would like to take part in the contest, please ask your mathematics teacher to help you prepare for the contest and then bring you to Tennessee Tech next year for the contest. If you are a teacher at a near by school and would like to bring students to the 54th Contest, please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it , for the Contest rules.
We hope to see you at Tennessee Tech next year in April for the 2010 TMTA Contest!
