We're high-level math students
High school students who've aced this material.
We know what can be tricky.
A whole year of math,
Taught in 2 weeks
Every instructor is a top Grade 11 or 12 student who's 3–4 years past what they're teaching, with 90s+ all the way through.
We know what Grade 9 is like.
Full Grade 9 Math in 10 days. Final exam on Friday
Open to every incoming Grade 9 student.
Can't make it in person? Online -> We have the same curriculum, same teachers, live every day.
We stay in touch. We can give tips on any high school courses in the future!
Our values
Overqualified
98+ in MHF4U, currently in Grade 12 calculus or data management. They've gone well past what they teach.
Recent enough to remember
16–18 year olds who remember exactly where we got stuck. We'll explain it without making you feel dumb.
Radical inclusion
$135 flat, discount codes available, all boards welcome. Motivation is the only prerequisite.
Taught with thought
Every problem set and activity is intentional planned and meaningful.
A points-based economy
Every camper earns private points; every class competes for class points. Both unlock perks and end-of-camp rewards.
Earning private points
Easy / Medium / Hard questions pay 1× / 3× / 5× — plus a perfect-run bonus.
Showing up
Big points for arriving on time — penalties for late arrivals and pickups.
Class points
Won as a class, then converted to private points — or banked to grow.
Trading & gifting
Pool points with friends — but half is kept as a transfer fee.
Penalties
Lose points for misbehavior; earn a cut for reporting serious incidents.
What you can spend points on
Private points are real currency at camp, not just leaderboard fuel:
- Stat boosts — invest in the Luck stat to improve your odds in any random draw or pick.
- Special roles — like Breezer (week-1-only phone privileges during class), and others discovered through play.
- End-of-camp marketplace — Day 10 is when you cash in your hoard for prizes, treats, and extras.

Day-by-day breakdown
Four periods per day across 10 days. Mornings teach; afternoons do.
A typical day — four periods
Each period mixes focused lessons with hands-on coordinated activities.
Afternoon periods shift the balance toward activities once the core teaching is done.
Join the camp online — fully part of the class
Every day runs online in parallel. You're not watching a recording — you're in the room with us, live.
A camera in the room
A live stream from the back of the classroom — the board, the teacher, the class, in real time.
A Discord stage to connect
Live Discord stage so you can listen in, ask questions, and participate — not just watch.
Staff dedicated to online
Dedicated staff manage the online group all day — same attention and support as in the room.
Same camp, same curriculum
Same schedule, same lessons, same activities. Full member of the camp — just from home.
Not in high school yet? You can still join online.
Campers 12 and under are welcome online — no on-site supervision needed. We strongly recommend in person for high-school-bound students, but the online group is perfect for younger learners who are keen.
The Paper Crane challenge
Worksheets and exams aren't for everyone. Running alongside the regular camp is an escape-room-style game — a chain of puzzles, ciphers, and clues hidden online and in the real world. Crack the full sequence and the prize is $10 cash per solver, plus camp-wide bragging rights.
Runs in parallel with regular sessions — drop in when you have time, or sprint through it on the weekend.
Spot a paper crane — physical or digital — and there's a clue attached. Math-flavoured puzzles that together reveal the password.
Our principles
Every decision we make comes back to these core ideas.
Focus on Understanding
Every session asks "why" — not just "how".
HDSB + Beyond
Built for HDSB MTH1W, open to all boards. No application — just register.
Peer Empowerment
Learning from someone your own age hits differently.
Be part of something different
Whether you're registering as a camper or looking to sponsor the program — we'd love to have you.
