[Gifted and Talented in Ohio Discussion List]

 Friends:

Below is a copy of a note I received about math contests for gifted elementary students. This looks like a worthwhile venture for students and teachers alike (note the deadlines). The link to sample problems (below) is very helpful, too.

Best wishes,
