• Pre-Algebra This course is an introduction to Algebra concepts. Students will be able to perform basic math functions such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. This class is designed to introduce the idea of a variable and its’ uses, as well as equations and inequalities, fractions and decimals, factors and multiples, problem solving, polynomials, and factoring.
• Algebra I This class teaches relationships between numbers, properties, and unknowns with the realistic problems of everyday life. At the completion of Algebra I, students will be able to use reasoning and problem solving, solve equations of one variable, solve systems of equations, graph simple equations and inequalities, and interpret the properties of roots and exponents applies to rational and irrational numbers.
• Geometry This class teaches mathematics in a visual context. It provides a situation for math to be realistic, challenging, and exciting. At the completion of Geometry, students will be able to use logical reasoning and problem solving, communicate using mathematical words and symbols, classify polygons, apply both deductive and inductive reasoning to written proofs, and compute area and volume of three-dimensional solids.
• Advanced Algebra/Trigonometry This class reviews skills obtained in Algebra I, applies them to more difficult and involved problem situations, and extends these algebra skills into more advanced mathematical topics and real world situations. At the completion of Advanced Algebra, the student will be able to use and apply given mathematical formulas, laws, and theorems in the proper situation including real numbers, linear equations and functions, inequalities, radicals, complex numbers, logarithms, conic sections, and trigonometry.
• Pre-Calculus This class uses and applies material from a number of branches of mathematics and makes connections between them. This course gives students the experience in using algebra and analytic geometry needed for the study of Calculus. At the completion of Pre-Calculus, students will be able to use various techniques to find zeros of polynomial functions, sketch graphs using symmetry, find equations of the conic sections and graph them, write numbers in polar form and perform operations on them, and perform operations on matrices.
• Calculus - Advanced Placement This class uses and applies concepts from several branches of mathematics in new and meaningful ways. It is required to advance in the fields of engineering, physical science, economics, and advanced mathematics. It investigates problems that involve motion at a varied speed or irregular path, maximums and minimums, and areas or regions with curved boundaries. This course gives the student an intuitive understanding of the concepts of calculus and experience with its methods and applications.
