Welcome to Math Olympiad for Elementary and Middle (MOEMs) at Lietz! MOEMs is a contest that consists of a number of practice exams that students participate in, with a final contest among schools. At Lietz, the team consists of 4th and 5th grade students, with a limit of 35 total participants.
Olympiads participate in after school practice sessions where the People In Charge of Olympiads (PICOs) teach different mathematical concepts and strategies for solving them. The format is typically a set of word problems that are solved as a group. In addition, homework is assigned each week for the Olympiads to practice and further hone their skills!
Once per month, the students will take a contest created by MOEMS and it will be scored out of five. Those scores are submitted to the organization and at the end of the year, the students receive certificates based on their results.
Register for the 2025-2026 school year here.
