If you are able to participate in this program on April 2nd, we would like for you to arrive around 8:30 a.m. to set up and the sessions will begin at 9:00 a.m... All sessions will be completed around 11:30 a.m. The students will rotate into the classrooms where the presenter will be speaking. Sessions will last from 15 to 20 minutes that will be determined by the number of speakers presenting.

Here is a little information about the program and if you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me, Kay Wilson, or Margie Bell at bellm@mcsk12.net (901-416-7983). Margie is the district overall coordinator for this program and is located at the Bond Building on Airways Blvd.

The M2 program is a district initiative for Memphis City Schools (MCS) where students explore and increase their knowledge in mathematics. These students come to the program one Saturday a month and for a one week camp during the summer. This year the 6th graders are studying statistics, 7th graders are studying geometry and 8th graders are studying algebra. If you know of anyone that works with statistics and would be willing to volunteer on April 2nd, we need people to present to our 6th, 7th and 8th graders.

Anyway, this program is free to the MCS students and transportation is provided to any student within the MCS system that wants to participate and scored "Proficient" or "Advance" on the most recent Tennessee Comprehensive Assessment Program test (TCAP). The parents of the participating students are also invited to each location and to participate in the Saturday M2 sessions. After participating in the Saturday sessions during the school year, the students are encouraged to attend the week long camp sessions at one of the Memphis area colleges or universities. The colleges working with our students last summer were The University of Memphis, Christian Brothers University and Southwest Tennessee Community College, Union campus. We are making plans to continue the M2 program this summer for both 6th and 7th graders working with these same colleges, plus some other colleges in our community.

This year the "Informational Career Day" planned for April 2nd. We want the students to not only study mathematics, but also meet and talk with individuals that use this information in the real world of work.

This is a little bit about this program, and I hope that you will share this information with your friends and colleagues. If you get someone that would love to volunteer for 3 hours on April 2nd, please let me know. We need presenters at Hamilton Middle, Bellevue Middle and Craigmont Middle and Ridgeway Middle for all three grades.
