Getting Started
See how easy it is to run Math-A-Thons and Read-A-Thons at your school
1Create fundraiser and send invites to parents
Each fundraiser gets a simple registration link and QR code that can be distributed to parents who can use them to set up personalized profiles for their children
2Set activity and donation goals for the students
Administrators and parents can set goals for the number of math games solved or minutes read. Students see these goals in their dashboard and can choose to promote them in their personal donation pages

3Ask friends and family to support students' goals
Parents can provide the names and emails of friends and family and we will share their child's personal donation page and ask them for their support

Student leaderboards are available on the class, grade, and school level and are based on total reading time or number of math games solved. Class leaderboards are available based on reading time, games solved, or total donations
Students' names are only visible to administrators
Auto-Generated, Online Math Games
In Math-A-Thons, students answer as many math problems as they can over a few weeks. Some schools choose to print handouts for the students to work on at home or in school, but we think Math-A-Thons don't have to be homework and can be fun! With ForOurSchool.org, students solve simple, but grade-appropriate math games online that follow the common core math curriculum and get instant feedback. Students get excited as they watch their number of games solved counter tick upwards and inch closer to their goal.
Many schools choose to hold Math-A-Thons over the summer because by that point, students will have learned all the curriculum and the Math-A-Thon can be a fun and competitive way to review it. This can also help to combat the dreaded "summer slide"!
