Math Description
The Mathematics Department focuses on developing a student’s ability to select and use appropriate methods for problem-solving by studying various branches of the discipline. Students must complete three credits (Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II minimum) to graduate, learning to organize, analyze, and synthesize data while appreciating the beauty and logic of mathematics.
Study the properties of numbers, linear and quadratic equations, and functions, while developing the strong study habits and real-world application skills essential for future math success.
Master the basic concepts of Algebra I with an approach that prioritizes conceptual connections and number sense to improve overall mathematical reasoning abilities.
Explore the patterns and properties of shapes, problem-solve geometric puzzles, and connect ideas in two and three dimensions, including an extension to right triangle trigonometry.
Focus on traditional properties and applications of geometric figures with an emphasis on improving algebraic techniques and number sense through real-world applications and extensive tool use.
Explore relations, functions, systems of equations, and inequalities involving real and complex numbers, using the graphing calculator extensively for graph and data analysis.
Cover all fundamental algebraic techniques and algorithms while focusing more heavily on conceptual connections, real-world applications, and the exploration of various function types.
A rigorous Precalculus survey designed to expand on previous concepts with a thorough study of functions, an in-depth unit on trigonometry, and an introduction to basic calculus concepts.
This challenging, college-level course examines differential and integral calculus, emphasizing a multi-representational approach (graphical, numerical, analytical) to understanding broad concepts.
An extension of Calculus AB that covers an additional semester of college work, including the calculus of parametric, polar, and vector functions, infinite series, and advanced integration techniques.
Introduce the major concepts for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data through hands-on activities across the four conceptual themes of exploring data, planning a study, probability, and statistical inference.
Strengthen your algebra skills and master the basics of trigonometry (including sinusoidal functions) in preparation for Precalculus, with integrated review for the ACT and SAT math tests.
A rigorous, post-AP Calculus BC survey that introduces the differentiation and integration of functions of several variables, vectors, and the geometry of three-dimensional space.
Become financially literate and confident in managing money by covering essential personal finance topics like budgeting, saving, investing, credit, and financing higher education through real-world simulations.
Gain an application-based introduction to statistics focused on producing, analyzing, and synthesizing data through sampling, experimental design, and concepts of probability.
