Math Kangaroo Logistics

Features

Math Kangaroo Competition is an international, once a year event, always on the third Thursday in March.

The Math Kangaroo competition held its first online format in 2020, as a response to address the COVID-19 situation. The online format of the exam will begin on this designated Thursday, and may continue over the course of days to accommodate the numbers of students that participate.

All students grades 1-12 qualify for participation in Math Kangaroo if they are able to work independently, read, and answer a multiple choice test.

Each student receives a T-shirt, an electronic certificate of participation, and a gift.

Pictures are taken and placed on our webpage or social media; you may request to opt-out during the registration process.

The competition questions are appropriate for the students’ age, and are both interesting and challenging.

Questions are chosen by the International Math Kangaroo Committee, AKSF (aksf.org).

In May students who rank top 20 in the country and top 3 in a given state are recognized on Math Kangaroo website and receive gifts.
