Camp Dates
The Mathworks JSMCH provides a unique mathematical learning community for elementary and middle school students, pre-service teachers, in-service teachers, master teachers, undergraduate students, graduate students, and university faculty. Young students have role models who provide a vision for why studying math is important and how students can use what they learn to pursue careers in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
