Ritenour Launches March Math Madness
We are excited to launch the first-ever Ritenour March Math Madness—a district-wide competition that brings the excitement of March Madness basketball to math learning! Students K-12 will compete by solving math problems and passing lessons on Imagine Math, earning Tokens (kindergarten - second grade) or Think Points (third grade and up).
This exciting math challenge is designed to inspire students to boost their math skills, engage in friendly competition, and develop confidence in problem-solving—all while having fun!
