“The Rocket City Math League (RCML) is a math competition for motivated
and talented middle and high school math students from Pre-Algebra
through
Geometry and Algebra II. RCML was created three years ago by a
small
group of math team students at Grissom High School in Huntsville,
AL.
The competition is now sponsored by an event incubation grant from Mu
Alpha
Theta that finances the math league. RCML remains a nonprofit,
student-run
organization.”

“The American Mathematics Competitions (AMC) is dedicated to the goal
of
strengthening the mathematical capabilities of our nation’s youth. We
believe
that one way to meet this goal is to identify, recognize and reward
excellence
in mathematics through a series of national contests called the
American
Mathematics Contest 8 (AMC 8), the American Mathematics Contest 10 (AMC
10), the American Mathematics Contest 12 (AMC 12), the American
Invitational
Mathematics Examination (AIME), and the United States of America
Mathematical
Olympiad (USAMO).”

“The American Regions Mathematics League's annual competition brings
together the nation's finest students. They meet, compete against, and
socialize with one another, forming friendships and sharpening their
mathematical
skills. Since its inception in 1976, ARML has snowballed, burgeoned,
and
mushroomed into a national program, involving almost 2000 students and
teachers from almost every state. Simply put, ARML is the World Series
of mathematics competitions.”

“The aim of the Mandelbrot Competition since its inception fourteen
years ago has been to provide a challenging, engaging mathematical
experience
which is both competitive and educational. In those fourteen years the
contest has grown to two levels (and three leagues) encompassing
students
from across the United States and several foreign countries.”
