Russian School of Mathematics – Wells Ave
About
The Russian School of Mathematics location on Wells Avenue in Newton is one of RSM’s learning centers for after-school math in grades K through 12. The program’s approach comes from elite mathematics schools in the former Soviet Union, adapted for the U.S. environment, and it holds that the study of mathematics is the pre-eminent tool of mental development. Students build mathematical excellence along with intellect and character.
A single curriculum carries students from kindergarten through 12th grade, developed and refined over nearly 30 years by RSM’s academic team. Classes average 12 students, and each grade has three levels so each child is placed in an appropriately challenging class. Classroom interaction is central to the method: students put their ideas into words, debate them and are exposed to the different ways their classmates think.
