The LMMS Mathbusters are mathletes who meet on a weekly basis to solve a variety of problems from nonstandard math problems to classic logic puzzles to 3D block puzzles and everything in between. We exercise our brains just for the fun of it and to prepare for a variety of math competitions. Last year, in addition to competing very successfully in the South Forsyth High Math Olympiad and MATHCOUNTS competitions, we hosted and competed in the first annual Forsyth County Pi Fight (a 4th-6th grade math competition). We hope to add more competitions this year. Mathbusters is open to all students in 6-8 grade. Listen for an announcement during the first week of school for the time and place of our first meeting.

Sponsor: Mary Cauller Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA): The Fellowship of Christian Athletes is the largest Christian sports organization in America as it was started in 1954. FCA focuses on serving local communities by equipping, empowering, and encouraging people to make a difference for Christ. Throughout the school year, FCA members have the opportunity to attend local and national camps, serve our athletic teams here at LMMS and generally be involved in the extra-curricular life of LMMS. FCA is open to all students that express an interest in fellowship and fun in a positive atmosphere. Although FCA is sports oriented, students do not have to be an athlete to be involved.
