Mathnasium of Redmond held its First Annual Math Contest – called a Math Triathlon – on Saturday May 23 at the Mathnasium Learning Center in Cleveland Square.

The contest was open to all students in third through sixth grade. Students competed against other students in their grade level for cash prizes.
