Welcome to our 15th annual MathMatters Contest registration page. The primary goals of the contest are to stimulate interest and achievement in mathematics among elementary school students and to provide recognition of outstanding young mathematicians, their dedicated teachers, and their schools. This is the 15th year we have been organizing MathMatters for 5th and 6th graders. This is the 2nd year, we are adding 4th graders to Mathmatters. We will have separate tests for 4th, 5th and 6th graders so that students are competing with the same grade level of contestants. Each group will receive 30 questions and will have 40 minutes to answer them. All participants will receive a participation certificate and the top ten students will receive awards. The following awards will be given to the top three students in each grade level. *Teachers/coaches do not have to be present to receive the gift certificate. If multiple students of the same teacher reach the top three, the teacher will only receive the highest gift certificate. The contest will be held on Saturday, November 12th, 2022 at 10 a.m. at the new campus of Beehive Science and Technology Academy (2165 E. 9400 S. in Sandy), Mathmatters is open to all fourth, fifth and sixth grade students in Utah and is limited to the first 300 registrants. Participation is free. Registration is required and is due November 2nd, 2022. Registration may be closed earlier if all spots are filled. Please register by clicking the following link:

Each top prize goes to exactly one contestant. In the case of ties, the following rules apply:
The student who has fewer mistakes overall will be ranked above the other.
If there is still a tie, the answers to the last five questions will be checked. Whoever has the most correct answers will be ranked higher.
If there is still a tie, the younger student will be ranked above the other.
If there is still a tie, then the ranking will be determined by drawing lots.
