Classes
3110 INTEGRATED MATH I College Prep 1 1 credit
This course is the first of a three-year sequence, which covers integrated algebraic and geometric principles. Specific topics include: order of operations, solving linear equations and inequalities,functions, slope and the equation of a line, polygons, systems of equations, 3-dimensional geometry, statistics and probability, and geometric transformations Prerequisite: Teacher recommendation. (Full year course, open to grade 9)
3131 GEOMETRY College Prep 2 1 credit
A one-year integrated mathematics course designed to prepare and motivate students for success in future mathematics courses. The link between algebra and geometry will be emphasized throughout. Students will discover important geometric properties through inductive reasoning and a hands-on approach. Both algebraic and geometric models will be introduced and further developed throughout the course. Transformational and coordinate geometry will be introduced and used appropriately.
Prerequisite: A grade of 75 or better in Algebra I CP2 and teacher recommendation. (Full year course, open to grades 10, 11)
3130 GEOMETRY Honors 1 credit
This course investigates the basic structure of Euclidean Geometry and the development of formal proofs. It allows for growth in understanding the process of deductive reasoning, applies algebraic methods to solving geometric problems and studies coordinate geometry. As the first course in our sequence for AP Calculus, topics include properties of regular polygons, similarity and congruence in polygons, circles, parallel lines and solids.
Prerequisite: A grade of 85 or better in 8th grade Algebra or 90 or better in Algebra I CP2 and teacher recommendation.
(Full year course, open to grades 9, 10)
3230 ALGEBRA II Honors 1 credit
This course is designed to help the student acquire more skills and to develop a deeper understanding of algebra. The course stresses the importance of previously learned concepts in the development of new skills and applications. Course content: number systems, relations and functions, matrices, systems, quadratics, polynomial and rational functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, sequences and series, conic sections, basic trigonometry, and probability/statistics. A TI84 graphing calculator is recommended.
Prerequisite: A grade of 85 or better in Geometry Honors and teacher recommendation.
(Full year course, open to grade 10,11)
