Students enrolled in this course will have the option to receive college credit from Central Washington University. It is possible that students will not have to pay for these credits and if that option is available and you are a senior, you will NOT be allowed to also take the early out or late start option next year. Students may also take and pass the AP Calculus exam to earn college credit for this course.
Applied Math
1.0 credit - Grades 10-12
Prerequisite: Successful completion of Algebra and Geometry or Seniors concurrently enrolled in Geometry or teacher approval.
Fee: $10
This course can check off the CTE and 3rd year math requirement but will only give the student 1.0 credit total for the year.
Design and build projects that apply concepts learned in algebra and geometry while mastering the mathematical practices. Learn about electrical wiring, manufacturing and create manned and unmanned aircraft. This course may be taken to satisfy the 3rd year of math state graduation requirements. This course does not meet 3rd year Math Entrance requirements for 4 year colleges and universities. This course articulates with a LCC college class.
Geometry
1.0 credit - Grades 9-12
Topics Covered: Rigid Transformations, Parallel/Perpendicular Lines, Logic & Proof, Right Triangles, Similarity, Quadrilaterals, Coordinate Geometry, 3D Measurement, Circles, Probability.
Pre-Calculus
2.0 credit - (one period each semester) Grades 9-12
Prerequisite: Algebra 2 and/or teacher approval.
Materials Needed: Graphing calculator
Topics covered: Numerical, graphical, and algebraic approaches will be used to explore Algebra 2 concepts more in-depth along with an emphasis on trigonometry. Designed to prepare students for college-level mathematics. This is an intensive course where students will develop conceptual understanding as well as computational skills essential to the study of Calculus.
Students enrolled in this course will have the option to receive college credit from Central Washington University. It is possible that students will not have to pay for these credits and if that option is available and you are a senior, you will NOT be allowed to also take the early out or late start option during the school year.
Math Lab
0.5 or 1.0 credit - Grades 10-11
A remediation of previously learned content, along with the exploration of Algebra/Geometry topics at a more in-depth level. This course is designed to better prepare students for advancement to Algebra 2. This course only counts as elective credit.
