This course is designed for those students who have shown high achievement in previous math courses and desire further training in advanced mathematics. It will prepare students for the Advanced Placement Calculus AB exam and college level mathematics equivalent to a first semester college-calculus course. The course will focus both on differential and integral calculus.…

This course is the equivalent of a one-semester, introductory, noncalculus-based college course in statistics. Most students who take AP Statistics will also take college courses in the physical, biological, and social sciences, and the AP course will provide an excellent foundation for subsequent college work. Students engage in four broad conceptual themes: (1) Exploring data…

This course is identical to Pre-Calculus except that concepts will be explored in much more detail.  Emphasis will be placed on understanding underlying theories and concepts and skills such as critical thinking and problem solving will be stressed. See Pre-Calculus description for more information. This is not an AP level course. GPA will be figured on…

This course prepares students to enter college mathematics by introducing them to probability and statistics and grounding them in pre-calculus concepts. This course is strongly recommended for students who anticipate entering a science, engineering or pre-medical program. The topics of emphasis include functions and their graphs, trigonometry, exponents, logarithms, polar coordinates, probability, matrices, and introduction…

This course is identical to Algebra 2 except that concepts will be explored in much more detail. Emphasis will be placed on understanding underlying theories and concepts and skills such as critical thinking and problem solving will be stressed. See Algebra 2 description for more information. This is not an AP level course. GPA will be figured…

This course reviews Algebra 1 with increased emphasis on equations and inequalities, the real number system, functions, relations, graphs of polynomial functions and conic sections, polynomials and algebraic expressions, exponents and numerical computation, and quadratic relations. The content includes systems of equations in two variables, introduction to complex number systems, data analysis, and study of…

This course in plane and solid geometry emphasizes inductive and deductive reasoning and their applications to geometric figures. Topics covered include reasoning, congruent and similar polygons, circles, and area and volume measurements. Proofs and algebra will be heavily integrated throughout the course as well as a geometry-based computer drawing program. (Prerequisite: Algebra 1; 9th graders…

Algebra 1 strengthens the student’s understanding of arithmetic and develops his/her skills of translating verbal expressions into mathematical symbols, numerical expressions and open sentences. Topics of emphasis include solving equations, inequalities, multiplying and factoring polynomials, graphing linear equations and solving radical expressions.
