VCS’s Elite Math Club

The “Math Guild” is Viera Charter School’s elite math club. Run by VCS’ math teacher, Mrs. Sunrita Sen, the Guild identifies math-loving students and challenges them to develop their competitive edges.

In 2025, the Guild sent three teams to Brevard Public Schools’ Secondary Mathematics Tournament – Seventh Grade Accelerated, Algebra 1, and Geometry. Competing against other Brevard schools, the Geometry team won FIRST PLACE in the Math Bowl and THIRD PLACE in the written test category. The Seventh Grade team won FIRST PLACE in the written test and SECOND PLACE at the Math Bowl.

And that’s not all!

This year, the Math Guild students also took on the AMC8, a prestigious national level math competition organized by the Mathematical Association of America and hosted regionally by professors of Florida Tech, on the university’s campus. Of all the students who took the test at Florida Tech from various Brevard schools, VCS Math Guild students won the FIRST, SECOND, and THIRD places. This is an outstanding accomplishment and a testament to the students’ and their teachers’ dedication and hard work.
