Statistic courses involve the major concepts and methods used to collect, analyze, and draw conclusions from data. Topics typically include populations and samples, measures of central tendency and variability, hypothesis testing, presentation and making statistical inferences.
Math Lab 02996 .5 credit
EL Credit, graded
Review of algebra and geometry concepts with additional opportunity for work sample completion.
This course provides extra support to assist students in attaining skills necessary for benchmark achievement. NOT A NCAA APPROVED COURSE
REMINDER:
*Students are expected to remain in English and math classes until Smarter Balance testing has been completed (through the end of your junior year). Students who have not met benchmark will be expected to continue taking appropriate classes until benchmark has been met.
*Students should plan to take English, math & science classes all 4 years to accommodate requirements by NCAA and college entrance requirements - keeping doors of opportunity open!
