About Math Is Cool "Academics Are Cool" began in the spring of 1996 when Gregg Sampson, a mathematics teacher at Lewis & Clark High School (LCHS) in Spokane, Washington organized a mathematics competition for sixth grade students in the Spokane area. He and members of the LCHS Math Team organized the events, wrote the competition items and implemented the competition at LCHS. By the 2016-2017 school year, the number of students that competed had grown to over 8000, and included elementary, middle and high schools from Seattle area, Tri-cities, Coeur d’Alene and other cities.
