Math

This course introduces real-life connections to algebra and the concept of using variables.  Topics include writing, solving and graphing linear equations and inequalities, solving systems of linear equations, quadratic functions, properties of exponents, polynomial operations, radical functions, data analysis, and an introduction to probability. *A graphing calculator is recommended.  (TI-84 PLUS is the calculator modeled in class by the teacher)

This course will include the study of points, lines, angles, polygons, circles, surface area, volume, methods of proof, transformations, congruence and similarity.  *A graphing calculator is recommended.  (TI-84 PLUS is the calculator modeled in class by the teacher)

The overall goal of the Honors level courses is to continue to develop students’ problem solving abilities and critical thinking skills by extending the content and concepts being covered. The topics covered will be the same as those covered in Geometry. The Honors class will stay on a similar time frame; however, more focus is placed on the use of higher level thinking skills and investigating higher level questions. 

This course introduces solutions of linear and quadratic equations, variations, matrices, and functions in real world problem solving and applications. Trigonometry, roots and data analysis are integrated into the learning. 

The overall goal of the Honors level courses is to continue developing students’ problem solving abilities and critical thinking skills by extending the content and concepts being covered. The topics covered will be the same as those covered in Algebra 2, but will also include work with matrices, exponential and logarithmic functions, rational functions, counting and probability, and more advanced trigonometry. 

This course will include the study of functions, statistics and trigonometry.  Students will study algebraic, circular, trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions.  Additional topics include probability, statistics, matrices, systems of linear equations, and sequences and series.  

This course is the study of precalculus and discrete math.  Additional topics covered will be analyzing functions, recursion and mathematical induction and the integral in calculus.  Students will be expected to use problem-solving techniques to solve application problems using logic and graphing calculators.  

This course is a flexed course that is flipped and self-paced.  Students work at their own pace through the content with the direct support of their teacher.  Each day a warm up is done to further the student’s knowledge of what is taught in videos.  Then students have the rest of the class period to work on practice problems, ask questions, take mini quizzes or quizzes.  

The goal of this course is to prepare students for other advanced and college-level mathematics courses prescribed by the Advanced Placement program. Topics focus on four major units: Polynomial and Rational Functions, Exponential and Logarithmic Functions, Trigonometric and Polar Functions, and Functions Involving Parameters, Vectors, and Matrices. Students completing this course have the opportunity to take an exam to earn college credit for Pre-Calculus or a college algebra with trigonometry course.

This is a year-long weighted course.

This is an introduction to basic differential and integral calculus. Topics included are: functions, limits and continuity, differentiation techniques and applications, and integration techniques and applications.  This course will not sufficiently prepare a student for the AP Calculus exam.  

This course is designed for students who are interested in pursuing a post-secondary education, but do not intend on taking precalculus their senior year. This course will incorporate the study of algebra with analysis and graphing of functions, and emphasis on applications. Students will study linear, quadratic, polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions, probability, inequalities, and systems of equations. Students will also study effective standardized test taking techniques in preparation for college entrance exams.  

This course is the equivalent of college Calculus 1 and Calculus 2 at most colleges and universities as prescribed by the Advanced Placement program.  Topics included are all of those listed for the AB course as well as the calculus of curves given in parametric, polar and vector forms, polynomial approximations and series including Taylor and Maclaurin series, and additional techniques of Integration including Logistic Growth.  Students completing this course may qualify for college credit for Calculus 1 and 2 and /or advanced placement based on the College Board (CEEB) advanced placement test.  Underclassmen who are interested in taking Multivariable Calculus in future years need to register for AP Calculus BC. 

AP Statistics is the equivalent of a first semester college statistics course, which culminates with an advanced placement examination for which students may receive college credit and/or advanced placement based on the College Board (CEEB) when entering college.  AP Statistics will introduce students to the tools for collecting data, observing patterns, planning a study and deciding how to measure the data, producing models using probability and statistics, for making statistical inferences from a set of data. *A graphing calculator will be used often in class, and required for the AP Exam (TI-84 PLUS is the calculator modeled in class by the teacher).

This course is the equivalent of more than one semester of college calculus at most colleges and universities as prescribed by the Advanced Placement program. Topics included are: functions, limits and continuity, differentiation, integration, and applications thereof.  Students completing this course may qualify for college credit for Calculus 1 and/or advanced placement based on the College Board (CEEB) advanced placement test. Underclassmen who are interested in taking Multivariable Calculus in future years need to register for AP Calculus BC.

This elective course offers an opportunity for those students who have completed AP Calculus BC as underclassmen to continue with a calculus based mathematics course.  Topics include a review of infinite series and parametric and polar functions, vector geometry, vector-valued functions, differentiation of several variables, multiple integration, line and surface integrals, and vector analysis.  While this is a college level course, this is not an AP course.  Therefore, there is not an AP Exam and there is no college credit awarded for successful completion of the course.
