Students at Sumter County Primary School (SCPS) are working hard to master addition and subtraction math facts; SCPS is using Karate Math as an initiative to promote learning of these skills. Students receive a new bracelet for each level they master. Kaitlyn Mayo, in Mrs. Sheryl Rush’s first grade class, was the first student to master addition and subtraction facts 0-10. She is now considered a Black Belt and is recognized on our Karate Math wall.
