Welcome to the Spring Edition of the 2026 Motor City Math Challenge!
Last fall, our first ever MCMC was a resounding success, smashing our capacity of over 130 driven students. Now, we're back and ready to provide an engaging competition experience for age groups that are often underrepresented in the competitive math community. Keeping in mind all we've learned and the heart-warming community response, we've decided to host at the Novi High School Atrium, allowing us to host a far larger number of students. Additionally, we've partnered with Mustang Math, a national organization that is making our increased reach possible. Our mission is, and always will be, to propel the young generations of Michigander mathletes to glory at the national level, but right now, we're are asking you to join us on April 11th, to go, as Buzz Lightyear says in Toy Story, to infinity and beyond!
