“If every school participated in First In Math, we’d see higher math skills for sure, more of an enthusiasm to engage in math to begin with, and then I think you’d see more engineers, more students that want to be astronauts. There are all these companies that are just looking for students that excel in math work, and we are getting there one step at a time. I can feel it. I really do.”

“Well, when you give them First In Math, there is an enthusiasm with the students because it is non-judgmental when they are solving math problems. And there is an excitement when you add the game skills to it. We have the stat sheets. We know that students are doing great when they do First In Math, but I want this to go statewide in Pennsylvania and then be a model for the rest of the country.”

“Math can be a little scary, and sometimes there aren’t a lot of students who want to engage in math.”
