Our 4th Grade team members are Bowen Bennett, Sophia Ellis, Logan Gramling, Sarva Iyer, Joanna Koshy, Ben Liang, Dash Rowan-Sims, Abir Singh, Eddison Spodick, Krzysztof Stough, and Shenuli Yapa
5th Grade team members are Pedro Alvarez, Sean Holstien, Harrison Kolkhorst, Praveen Lockuliyanage, Daylen Regner, and Jack Weber.

From November to March, The Great Numbers compete in monthly Math Olympiads with other schools across the United States and even with schools from around the globe. The team will, also, participate in a local Math League competition to give our team members the opportunity to qualify for the State Championship.
Our Tiger Math Club meets an hour, once per week, to learn mental math tips. Thank you, The Greater Numbers Math Team, for all of your hard work. Congratulations! We wish you great success in your upcoming competitions.

The Wall of Fame for Shoe Tying for Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd Graders
Once notified of the student's successful shoe-tying accomplishment, we will provide your student with a paper shoe to color, take the student's photo, and then post the photo and customized paper shoe on our WALL OF FAME FOR SHOE TYING!
It's going to be really exciting to see our young Tigers on the WALL OF FAME!
