Orcas School PTSA is offering two enrichment summer school courses: “Counting on a Small Planet – Activities for Exploring Environmental and Cultural Mathematics” will be offered July 6 to 10 and “Math Around the World,” featuring Math Games from four continents, will be offered from July 13 to 17 and are open to all island youth that would be entering grades four to six in the fall.

Both sessions run from 9 a.m. to noon at Orcas School. One session is $85 and signing up for both sessions is $140.00. The courses will be taught by Marta Nielson. A master’s level teacher, she has 18 years combined experience in both school and youth group teaching environments and a special love for getting kids excited about math.
