The Mathworks program at Texas State held their summer youth math camp this past week, hosting a ceremony Thursday at the San Marcos High School to recognize the teachers that participated, the sponsors and the annual T-Shirt contest winner.
The program was sponsored by the Webber Foundation, H-E-B and the Lion’s Club. The curriculum was developed by Assistant Director of Research and Curriculum Development for Mathworks Hiroko Warshauer and Terry McCabe.
The Founder and Executive Director of Mathworks Max Warshauer was the main speaker for the event and handed out certificates of recognition for all of the teachers involved. Warshauer said there were 140 students that participated in the camp at San Marcos High School, 70 students in a residential program at Texas State University and 76 participating at another camp at the university. The students come from all over the country. Texas State supports the program in other ways too. “This year we had 22 undergraduates from Texas State assisting in the classroom,” Warshauer said.
