This course introduces students to Euclidean Geometry as a demonstrative discipline through proofs of geometrical propositions from certain and self-evident principles. In addition to exploring the foundations of geometrical knowledge, students are taught how to apply that knowledge to concrete problems and how to integrate pure geometry with algebraic reasoning and expression. This course places a special emphasis on the nature of demonstrative knowledge, the development of logical thinking skills, and the arts of analytic and synthetic reasoning. Major topics include lines and angles, triangles and polygons, ratios and proportion, coordinate geometry, and circles.

"The following schedule is updated each school day and shows the current week through today, so upcoming days will appear as the week goes on. It is meant to be a secondary source of information. It may not always be accurate, and it is not a substitute for what is said in class. Parents are encouraged to help their child rely on their planner and class notes as the primary source."
