Algebra I

    Algebra I is a rigorous study of the fundamental structure of the real number system and the solution of math problems through the algebraic method. Attention will be given to algebraic properties. This course will include the study of formulas, equations, inequalities, and other basic concepts of algebra. All students planning to enter a college-preparatory program or the technical field are strongly encouraged to take this course.

Algebra I-A

    This course is the first half of Algebra I. It is designed for students who need more practice on new concepts than a traditional Algebra I class offers. Both Algebra I-A and Algebra I-B must be taken to meet the state requirements for Algebra I.

10th Grade

Algebra I-B

    This course is the second half of Algebra I. It is designed to follow Algebra I-A and is for students who need more practice on new concepts than a traditional Algebra I class offers. This class, as well as Algebra I-A, must both be completed to meet the state requirements for Algebra I.

Prerequisite: Algebra I - A or equivalent

Unified Geometry

    Geometry is designed for those students who plan to continue their study into advanced mathematics and science. This course is the formal development of geometric skills and concepts with strong emphasis on the application of algebraic principles. Course work provides for development of problem-solving skills, trigonometric functions, inductive and deductive reasoning and real-world applications and modeling.

Prerequisite: Algebra I or equivalent

11th Grade

Geometry-A

    This course is the first half of Geometry. It is designed for students who need more practice on new concepts than a traditional Geometry class offers. Both Geometry A and Geometry B must be taken to meet the state requirements for Geometry.

Prerequisite: Algebra I or equivalent

12th Grade

Geometry-B

    This course is the second part of Geometry and taken after completion of Geometry A. Both Geometry A and Geometry B must be taken to meet the state requirements for Geometry.

Prerequisite: Geometry A

11th-12th

Algebraic Connection

    Algebraic Connections integrates topics from Algebra I, Geometry, measurement, and probability and statistics with emphasis on real world applications. It is also designed for students who wish to take Algebra II, but feel they need more math experiences prior to that course. This course cannot be taken after Algebra II with Trigonometry.

Prerequisite: Algebra I and Geometry

Algebra II with Trigonometry

    Algebra II is an extension of the number system that began in Algebra I. Emphasis is placed on functional notation and on understanding and use of algebraic structure and techniques. Elementary trigonometry, exponential and logarithmic functions, complex numbers, and matrices should be considered integral parts of the course content.  Algebra II is an essential elective for all college-bound students and follows Algebra I and Unified Geometry in the normal sequencing of courses.

Prerequisite: Algebra I or equivalent

PreCalculus

Precalculus is designed primarily for students considering careers in math or science related fields. A study of polynomial functions, conic sections, logarithms, exponents, and trigonometry are expanded. This course is a must for students who will be required to take Calculus at the post-secondary level.

Prerequisite; Geometry and Algebra II
