Mathematics

Through the mathematics curriculum, students develop analytical and logical thinking skills. These skills will prove useful for the student regardless of the college or career path taken following high school. Through participation in Arcadia High School’s comprehensive mathematics program students will be well-prepared for their post-secondary career and study in many diverse areas including mathematics, science, engineering, computer science, the social sciences, and other subject areas. The mathematics program at Arcadia High School balances the teaching of computational skills along with the conceptual understanding of mathematics and real-world mathematical problem solving. As they progress through the series of courses offered, students will be challenged with increasingly complex mathematical concepts and problems. All students, with persistence, effort, and daily practice, can be successful in mathematics.
