National TriMathlon Day

Join kids across the country taking part in National TriMathlon Day on Sunday, October 20, 2013 at more than 200 Mathnasium Learning Centers!

The TriMathlon is a math competition for 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students – it's free and open to everyone.Participants will have money donated to local schools for every correct answer on the TriMathlon test either through the website

DonorsChoice.org, which allows schools to select whatever they need with

donations accruing toward those items, or via direct donations. Mathnasium is targeting an aggregate nationwide donation of about $37,000, which includes the national prizes.




The 1st place winners at each grade level will be invited to move on to the national TriMathlon, where the national champions will be determined based on their local test scores. If needed, tiebreaker tests will be held at the winners’ local Mathnasium locations the following weekend.
