Fremont Education Foundation (FEF) is pleased to offer the California Math League (CAML) contest to FUSD students. CAML is part of the Math League . Over 1 million students take part in Math League competitions each year. These contests are open to all students.

The CAML contests offer challenging math problems that cover the math curriculum in grades 4 and 5. Any student in grade 4 or below can take the grade 4 contest. Any student in grade 5 or below can take the grade 5 contest. There is also an Algebra 1 contest that any student can take.

Each contest consists of 30 multiple-choice questions that you can do in 30 minutes. On each 3-page contest, the questions on the 1st page are generally straightforward, those on the 2nd page are moderate in difficulty, and those on the 3rd page are more difficult.

The following schools offer the CAML contest, either through the school or through the school's math club. If your child attends one of these schools, you cannot take the contest with FUSS. It is the same contest for everyone. The one offered at school is usually free, too.

• Ardenwood

• Chadbourne

• Grimmer

• Warm Springs

The contest will cost $9.99. Payment will not be refunded if you do not show up for the contest . There may be a limited number of spaces available.

Students may use calculators without QWERTY keyboards.  No graph paper, compasses, straight edges, rulers, printed mathematical tables, or other devices shall be allowed.

We will be using their online system for these contests.  We will send you further instructions after you register.
