Math 10 Courses - Students and parents are encouraged to research the admission requirements for post-secondary programs of study as requirements vary by institution and by program within the institution.
There are two streams available for Math 10 students:
If a student has not yet decided on a career path and has achieved 60% minimum in Math 9, Foundations/Pre-Calculus 10 is recommended as it leaves the most options available.
All pathways provide students with mathematical understandings and critical thinking skills. When choosing a pathway, students should consider their current interests and future plans. It is not always possible to switch pathways without backtracking and learning key concepts so it is important to choose carefully with education and career goals in mind.
