A Home For Local Saratoga-Area Problem Solvers
AoPS Academy is an after-school enrichment program with a mission to teach problem solving skills through advanced math, science, and language arts courses. Families like yours will experience a vibrant community that discovers, inspires, and trains problem solvers to face the challenges of tomorrow.
Discover New Strengths With Expert Instructors
With the support of expert instructors, students deepen their critical thinking, refine communication skills, and design experiments in an engaging environment.
Inspire Excellence With Motivated Classmates
Collaborate with an advanced peer group who is also focused on growing as mathematicians, scientists, programmers, and writers — encouraging each other to reach their fullest potential.
Train With a Problem-First Methodology
Students learn best when they are challenged with problems they may not know how to do. AoPS trains students by solving hard problems every day, breaking them down into familiar parts.
Connect With a Local Problem Solving Community
Our academic community extends beyond the classroom – our campus team holds unique events to help our network of mentors and students stay connected, try fun activities, and explore new ideas.
