Kettle's Girls Math Club project was designed to increase third, fourth and fifth grade girls' interest in math. Students, sometimes accompanied by their parents, participated in weekly meetings where they would focus on different math topics and how they fit into their daily lives and their culture. The group also published a book on the girls' achievements and will continue to encourage and support them in the future.
