History

Learn about the past history of our club.

The Beginning

The foundation of the Rochester Math Club stems from an effort by Century High School’s Math League and dedicated parents to fundraise for math competitions in Rochester. We wish to provide these opportunities to more students and expand their understandings of complex topics. With these ideas in mind, we decided that establishing a nonprofit organization that unifies math-driven individuals in the Rochester area would accomplish the aforementioned purposes.
