Geometry

Honors Geometry

MA14 (State Course Number: 2532)

Geometry is made up of seven strands: Logic and Proofs; Points, Lines, Angles, and Planes; Triangles; Quadrilaterals and Other Polygons; Circles; Transformations; and Three-dimensional Solids.  The course is designed for students who expect math to be a major component of their future college and career experiences. 

Prerequisite: Algebra I

Pre-calculus

MA17 (State Course Number: 2564)

 Pre-Calculus is made up of five strands: Polar Coordinates and Complex Numbers; Functions; Quadratic, Polynomial, and Rational Equations and Functions; Exponential and Logarithmic Equations and Functions; and Parametric Equations.

This course is dual credited through Ivy Tech for 3 credit hours (MATH 136). Students must meet qualifying scores to receive college credit.  Students may be required to purchase a textbook.  No college tuition is charged for this class.

Prerequisite: Honors Algebra II with a C or higher

TRIGonometry 

MA18 (State Course Number: 2566)

Trigonometry consists of seven strands: Conics; Unit Circle; Geometry; Periodic Functions; Identities; Polar Coordinates; and Vectors. A strong understanding of complex and imaginary numbers is a necessity for fields such as engineering and computer programming.

This course is dual credited through Ivy Tech for 3 credit hours (MATH 137). Students must meet qualifying scores to receive college credit.  Students may be required to purchase a textbook.  No college tuition is charged for this class.

Prerequisite: Honors Algebra II with a C or higher

Calculus

MA23 (State Course Number: 2527)

Calculus is made up of five strands: Limits and Continuity; Differentiation; Applications of Derivatives; Integrals; and Applications of Integrals. The eight Process Standards for Mathematics apply throughout the course. 

This course is dual credited through Indiana University East for 5 credit hours (MATH 215). Students must  have a GPA of 2.7 or above to receive college credit. Students may be required to purchase a textbook. Tuition is $25 per semester hour.

Teachers Remarks: Students must have two years of high school Algebra, one year of Geometry, Pre-Calculus and Trigonometry.

Prerequisite: Pre-Calc and Trigonometry

Advanced Math, Calculus II CC

MA24 (State Course Number: 1008)

Advanced Mathematics, College Credit is a title covering (1) any advanced mathematics course that is offered for credit by an accredited postsecondary institution and is not a course offered in the Indiana State.

*This course is dual credited through Indiana University East for 5 credit hours (MATH 216). Students must have a C or above in Calculus I. Students may be required to purchase a textbook. Tuition is $25 per semester hour.

Prerequisite: Calculus I

Math Lab

MA28 (State Course Number: 2560)

Mathematics Lab is to be taken in conjunction with a Core 40 mathematics course, and the content of Mathematics Lab should be tightly aligned to the content of its corresponding course. May be repeated.

Teachers Remarks: This class is taken in the same cycle as the math class. Must be Pre-Calc, Trig., Calculus, or Quantitative Reasoning.

Prerequisite: Must be in Pre-Calc/Trig or Calculus

Analytical Algebra II

MA10 (State Course Number: 2524)

This course applies the fundamentals of rhetoric to the methods of research.  The literature will be using college level  Analytical Algebra II builds on previous work with linear, quadratic and exponential functions and extends to include polynomial, rational, radical, logarithmic, and other functions. This course is not recommended for students interested in pursuing a STEM degree at a four year institution; this course does not prepare students for Pre-Calculus/Trigonometry.  

Teachers Remarks: Parent and student must sign a consent form. Taking this course may affect the student’s ability to attend a particular post-secondary educational institution or enroll in a particular course at a particular post-secondary educational institution.  Check with your counselor.

Prerequisite: Algebra I

MathEmatical Quantitative Reasoning 

MA25 (State Course Number: 2550)

Quantitative Reasoning is a mathematics course focused on the study of numeracy, ratio and proportional reasoning, modeling, probabilistic reasoning to assess risk, and statistics. Students build knowledge of and confidence with basic mathematical/analytical concepts and operations required for problem solving, decision making, and economic productivity in real-world applications and prepare for an increasingly information-based society in which the ability to use and critically evaluate information, especially numerical information, is essential. Technology, such as computers and graphing calculators, should be used frequently. This higher-level mathematics course is designed to align with college-level quantitative reasoning courses for dual secondary/college credit. The eight Process Standards for Mathematics apply throughout the course. 

Teachers Remarks: This course would be helpful for students who do not have the qualifying scores for Pre-Calc/Trig or for students after they have completed Pre-Calc/Trig who do not want to move on to Calculus. This class is an introductory math course for a variety of majors and colleges. 

Prerequisite: A student needs to earn C- or above in either Algebra 2 or Honors Algebra 2
