Mathematics

ALGEBRA 1 • 9TH GRADE • 1 CREDIT
This course provides students with opportunities to
apply previously learned arithmetic skills to expressions
involving variables. Topics include algebraic operations,
linear and quadratic equations, inequalities, factors,
exponents, radicals, polynomial expressions and
rational expressions. Problem-solving strategies are
emphasized. Students solve word problems and explore
applications of algebraic concepts in their vocational
areas of study.

GEOMETRY • 10TH GRADE • 1 CREDIT
This course involves the study of geometric relationships
in all three dimensions with emphasis on real world
applications. Students must use inductive and deductive
reasoning in formal and informal mathematical proofs.

ALGEBRA 2 • 11TH GRADE • 1 CREDIT
This course focuses upon linear and quadratic
equations, inequalities, polynomials, factoring, rational
expressions, radicals, complex numbers, coordinate
geometry, conic sections, linear systems as well as
linear, quadratic, exponential, and logarithmic functions.
Students engage in problem-solving by application of
the mathematical principles learned. The prerequisites
are Algebra 1 and Geometry.

PRE-CALCULUS • 12TH GRADE • 1 CREDIT
(HIGHER LEVEL MATH COURSE)
This course provides students with the mathematical
background that they will need for a college-level
calculus course. Topics include terminology, solving
equations graphically, and functions. Material is
presented with a focus upon real-world problem solving.

APPLIED MATH AND STATISTICS • 12TH GRADE • 1
CREDIT (HIGHER LEVEL MATH COURSE)
This is a higher-level mathematics class that expands
on Geometry and Algebra 2 that also includes the math
that is needed for industry entrance examinations.

HONORS MATH CLASSES • 10TH AND 11TH GRADES
• 1 CREDIT
Honors level courses are offered in Geometry and
Algebra 2. These courses are taught at a faster pace
with extended assignments and requirements for those
students who wish to further challenge themselves.
