Secondary Math 1 Fundamentals 577120
Teacher permission required
Students taking this course are required to take the Secondary Math 1 Lab
This class is recommended for students who could benefit from some extra support in Secondary Math 1. The purpose of Secondary Math 1 is to formalize and extend the mathematics that students learned in the middle grades. The critical areas, organized into modules and topics, deepen and extend understanding of linear relationships, in part by contrasting them with exponential phenomena, and in part by applying linear models to data that exhibit a linear trend. Secondary Mathematics 1 uses properties and theorems involving congruent figures to deepen and extend understanding of geometric knowledge from prior grades.
Secondary Math 1 Lab
Teacher permission required
This class is designed for those students who are enrolled in Secondary Math 1 Fundamentals. The lab will provide students the opportunity to receive additional teacher support on the topics from Secondary Math 1 and remediation from previous math courses. This class will combine the skills taught in Freshman Success while providing additional time to work on the math content. Students that take the Math 1 Lab will get their Freshman Success credit from the lab class.

Secondary Math 2 Fundamentals 577210
Teacher permission required
Students taking this course are also required to take the Secondary Math 2 Fundamentals Lab
This class is recommended for students who could benefit from some extra support in Secondary Math 2. The focus of Secondary Mathematics 2 is on quadratic expressions, equations, and functions and on comparing their characteristics and behavior to those of linear and exponential relationships from Secondary Math 1 as organized into six critical areas, or units. The need for extending the set of rational numbers arises, and real and complex numbers are introduced so that all quadratic equations can be solved. The link between probability and data is explored through conditional probability and counting methods, including their use in making and evaluating decisions. The study of similarity leads to an understanding of right triangle trigonometry and connects to quadratics through Pythagorean relationships. Circles, with their quadratic algebraic representations, round out the course.

Secondary Math 3 Fundamentals
Teacher permission required
This class is recommended for students who could benefit from some extra support in Secondary Math 3. In Secondary Mathematics 3 students pull together and apply the accumulation of learning they have from their previous courses, with content grouped into four critical areas, organized into units. Students expand their repertoire of functions to include polynomial, rational, radical, exponential and logarithmic functions. They expand their study of right triangle trigonometry to include general triangles and the unit circle. Students bring together all of their experience with functions and geometry to create models and solve contextual problems. In addition, students apply methods from probability and statistics to draw inferences and conclusions from data.

This course will cover remaining concepts of Pre-calculus and applications of concepts taught in Math 1 & 2. In this course students bring together all of their experience with functions and geometry to create models and solve contextual problems. Students will expand their repertoire of functions to include polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions; expand their study of right triangle trigonometry to include general triangles and the unit circle; and apply methods from probability and statistics to draw inferences and conclusions from data using permutations and combinations. Upon completion of Secondary Math 3 Honors, students will be ready to take AP Calculus (AB or BC).
Math Decision Making (Available for 11th & 12th Grade)
Pre-Requisite: Secondary Math 2.
Mathematical Decision Making is a course for Juniors and Seniors. The course includes mathematical decision making in finance, modeling, probability, and statistics, and making choices. Students will make sense of authentic problems, reason abstractly and quantitatively while communicating mathematics to others, and use structure and regularity of reasoning to describe mathematical situations. The four quarters of instruction are independent of each other, allowing students to enter and exit the course quarterly.
Data Science (Available for 11th, & 12th Grade (579550)
Prerequisite: Successful completion of Secondary Mathematics 2
This course will develop skills in Data Science and Statistics by emphasizing a modeling approach. Students will reason and make sense of data using the Statistical Problem-Solving Process consisting of: (1) Formulating Statistical Investigative Questions; (2) Collect/Consider Data; (3)Analyze Data; (4) Interpreting the Results. Students will learn to use data and modeling to formulate and answer questions as well as to critically evaluate information using mathematics as the reasoning tool.

This Advanced Placement course introduces students to the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing and drawing conclusions from data. Four conceptual themes are studied: (1) Exploring Data; (2) Planning a Study; (3) Probability and Simulation; (4) Statistical Inference - hypothesis testing and confidence intervals.
AP Calculus (AB/BC) (Available for 11th & 12th Grade)
Prerequisite: Successful completion of Math 3 Honors. A TI-Nspire CX CAS graphing calculator is required for this course.
This Advanced Placement course includes material covered in the first two semesters of a college calculus class. Students pursuing a university major in science, math, business or engineering are encouraged to take A.P. Calculus. The course prepares students for the BC Advanced Placement Calculus Test.
