The 32nd Summer Mathematics School concluded in the foothills of Adygea. For three weeks, 112 schoolchildren from 12 regions of Russia solved problems, attended lectures, and participated in creative and athletic competitions at the Gornaya Legenda ASU training and production facility.

The school offered eight educational programs: three competitive and olympiad groups for grades 9–11 and five olympiad groups. Teachers supported participants at every stage, from independent solution searches to collaborative homework review.
