Teacher Resources

Numerous resources are available on the tabs above to help teachers in running their Mu Alpha Theta chapter. Included are a sample initiation ceremony and the chapter on sponsor responsibilities from the Sponsor Handbook. To download the entire Sponsor Handbook (updated November 2012), please click here.

If you are a new sponsor, we have manuals available from other sponsors. These manuals describe ideas for how to run your chapter, as well as useful activities to do throughout the year.

Please note the new Chapter Grants now available. We are offering a limited number of grants to financially support chapter efforts to fulfill Mu Alpha Theta's mission to stimulate an interest in mathematics. Grants will be given up to $1000 per chapter. Please read through the application and contact the National Office, if you have any questions.
