Math Teachers' Circle is a program that aims to bring educators at the high school and middle school level together with university professors. Meetings consist of exploring a mathematical concept by generating questions about it and then attempting to answer these questions, similar to how research in mathematics is done. The mission of Math Teachers' circle at WSU is to build, support, and connect our community by bringing K-12 educators and higher educators together. Meetings are meant to be fun and relaxed, with food and refreshments provided for all participants.
