This is the first year of a two-year course designed to prepare students for the Common Core Algebra Regents examination required for graduation. The course will focus on creating a strong foundation in Algebra. Students who would need further math experiences before moving onto Algebra Common Core are recommended for this course.
Algebra A: This is the second year of the two-year program that prepares students for the Common Core Algebra Regents. The topics in this course include equations, expanding functions to include quadratics, sequences, and statistical reasoning.
Algebra Regents: This is the first year in the NYS three-year math sequence. Work in this course focuses on equations, expanding knowledge of functions to include quadratics, sequences, and statistical reasoning.
Geometry A: This course is intended for those students who completed the two-year Algebra course. Topics to be covered will be the essential topics in the Geometry curriculum.
Geometry Regents: This course is the second step in the NYS three-year sequence. Topics include geometric proofs, parallel lines, quadrilaterals, similarity, probability, transformational and 3 dimensional geometry.
Geometry Honors: This course is the second step in the NYS three-year math sequence. Topics to be covered include geometric proofs, parallel lines, quadrilaterals, similarity, mathematical systems, probability, transformational and 3 dimensional geometry. The curriculum is more rigorous than Geometry R.
This course is the third step in the NYS three-year sequence. Topics to be covered will include advanced algebra, patterns, relations, functions, modeling, trigonometric functions and their applications, probability, and statistics. An Algebra II Common Core Regents will be given at the end of the course.
This is a more rigorous curriculum than Algebra II. Topics covered include advanced algebra, patterns, relations, functions, modeling, trigonometric functions and their applications, probability and statistics.
This is a full year course which includes the study of Matrix mathematics, probability, logs, and functions. A greater emphasis on trigonometric relations will precede an introduction to limits and differential calculus.
This is a rigorous sophisticated math course. It requires a high degree of maturity and motivation. Topics include functions, analytic geometry, circular functions, and trigonometry. This course provides a rich preparation for college level calculus and abstract algebra.
This course is equivalent to a two-semester college-level calculus course. The concepts of differential and integral calculus are introduced and applied. Students who have successfully completed Honors Pre-Calculus have the pre-requisite math skill for this course. More facts about this course are available from the VVS Guidance Office or the course instructor.
This course emphasizes conceptual understandings and practical applications of logic, sets, probability matrices, and linear programming.
This course is an introduction to probability and statistics. Topics covered are: graphs, tables, frequency distributions, measures of central tendency and dispersion, the normal distribution, correlation and regression, probability, and an introduction to inferential statistics.
