Testimonials:

"My experience with this class was very positive! It was a great way to interact with some students and teachers before my freshman year and obtain an understanding of what math was going to look like at Brebeuf. This class also allowed me to become more open minded with math and to believe that there can always be more than one way to understand or solve a problem!"

"I took Mr. Kaplan's Math+ class the spring/summer before freshman year and LOVED it. Mr. Kaplan was a fun and interactive teacher and it got me thinking to the point where I would go talk about the puzzling problems with my family members. I also ended up lucky enough to have Mr. Kaplan again for Algebra 2 honors freshman year!"
