(Mu Alpha Theta)

The Passaic Valley Chapter of Mu Alpha Theta National Mathematics Honor Society is an organization whose purpose is to stimulate interest in mathematics by providing public recognition of superior mathematical scholarship and by promoting various mathematical activities. It is sponsored by the Mathematical Association of America, the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, and the American Mathematical Association. There are currently over 2000 chapters in the United States and nineteen foreign countries. 

Colleges and universities recognize membership in Mu Alpha Theta as an important part of a student's academic resume. Topics presented during club meetings, participation in our free mathematics competitions, and the interest generated by these activities help members to gain a greater understanding and enjoyment of mathematics.  

Students of Passaic Valley must meet certain requirements/criteria for membership consideration into the National Mathematics Honor Society including a minimum 3.5 GPA in Math (Honors Scale).  All applications will be reviewed by Mrs. Thornton, the National Mathematics Honor Society Adviser in consultation with the Mathematics Department Lead Teacher, Mr. Sileo.

Honor cords will be available to active senior members prior to graduation.
