Come to the Fall 2018 BHS Math Information Night for Math 1, Math 2 and Math 3 (and Advanced Math levels)
Parents and guardians, please come to find out more about math education at Berkeley High School. Here’s an opportunity to learn from our math department leads and teachers about how math instruction is approached in the classroom. It’s also a chance to learn about the Math website, which offers instructional support and a video for every math module in the curriculum!
