The Integrated Math Program, a research-based curriculum that is recognized as an “exemplary” program by the U.S. Department of Education, is utilized as the core mathematics curriculum. Each year, students study topics from algebra, geometry, statistics,  trigonometry, and probability. In this problem-centered approach,  students actively construct a conceptual understanding of topics by working in ways emulating those used by mathematicians and scientists; students conjecture, investigate, reason, generalize, debate, and communicate their findings to their peers. 

Northside's core math curriculum is aligned with both the content and practice standards of the Common Core State Standards while incorporating many topics to prepare students to take advanced courses. The curriculum includes AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, and AP Statistics. The highest level elective is Multivariable Calculus, which can be taken after either calculus course. Northside also boasts an award-winning math team. The College Board has recognized Northside with the  Siemens Awards for “providing access to AP math and science courses  for a significant proportion of its students.”
