The Fresno Math Circle is a free enrichment program for children in grades three to 12 interested in mathematics.
Applications for the academic year of 2018-2019 are being currently accepted. Application consists of filling out a form and submitting your child's work on preview problems. Both of these as well as more information about the program are available on the website:

The purpose of the Fresno Math Circle is to introduce children to interesting mathematical ideas that are not taught in school, work on challenging problems, discuss important concepts at a greater depth than is usually done in school, develop logic and reasoning skills, and, very importantly, have fun with mathematics.
The program is taught by Fresno State mathematics faculty and assisted by Fresno State mathematics and engineering students. In addition to bi-weekly meetings, the Fresno Math Circle hosts a few local and national mathematics competitions as well as preparation sessions.
