WHAT: A’s outfielder Billy Burns will work on math problems and visit with students at St. Bede Catholic School on Tuesday, May 26. The visit will be on behalf of the A’s “Mathletics” program.

Mathletics is a unique program designed to stress the importance of students using math in their daily lives. The A’s design and distribute workbooks, which use simple formulas for calculating statistics of A’s players, to participating schools. Students in the first through eighth grades who complete their workbooks correctly and submit their answer sheets to the A’s receive two free ticket vouchers.

Since the program was created in 2003, over 200,000 Bay Area and Northern California students have participated in the program. Mathletics is presented by Ross Stores with support from Comcast SportsNet California.

WHEN: Tuesday, May 26 12:45-1:15 p.m.

Where: St. Bede Catholic School 26910 Patrick Ave. Hayward, CA 94544
