TheBrazilian Mathematical Olympiad (OBMEP) is a national project directed to thepublic and private schools, it carried out by the National Institute of Pureand Applied Mathematics, with the support of the Brazilian Society ofMathematics and it is promoting by the Ministry of Education and the Ministryof Science, Technology, Innovation and Communications. This project came aboutin order to improve the interest of mathematics in children and adolescents,and also, to solve difficulties that for many people turn out to be somethingfrustrating. In addition, it contributes to a higher classification of them inOBMEP, which it's an important competition to discovery of new talents.Voluntarily, students from various engineering courses were instructed andtrained to teach classes to 99 students enrolled in the 6th and 7th years, with52% belonging to public schools and the other 48% of private schools. Contentsin the areas of Arithmetic, Combinatorial Analysis and Geometry were addressed,on Saturdays, at the Federal University of Technology, Parana, for free anddidactic. The approximation of the academic community to society, together withthe constant participation of the family and the encouragement of the teachers,it contributed significantly to the success of the project. Besides topresenting a greater number of classified in relation to previous editions,statistics point to satisfactory results, not only in the educational area, butalso in the social context, once the students have come into contact withchildren of the same age, but different realities. Students dropout rates werelower for public school (42%), it be confirming the need for more attention ineducation and it be reinforcing the relevance of this work.
