MHS MATH

Students will be required to complete three credits of math to meet graduation requirements. Students must engage in a math experience (not necessarily a math credit) for every year they are in high school until graduation.

 To promote the effective use of technology in education, the Mathematics Department recommends the use of calculators when appropriate in all courses. The department therefore strongly encourages each student to have his or her own calculator for use in mathematics classes as a cell phone is not an acceptable stand-in for a calculator. A graphing calculator is recommended for courses after geometry.

The charts below outline the various sequences of courses for each level in the mathematics program. Their purpose is to serve as a guide for selecting courses over a period of four years. It should be noted that these charts are not meant to imply that once students choose a particular level that they must continue with that level for the remainder of their high school career.
