This course is designed for the incoming freshman student who needs further skill preparation before taking Introduction to Algebra. The emphasis of this course is to increase the student’s arithmetic competence. The four basic operations will be stressed as well as order of operations, basic equation solving, ratios and percents, word problems, basic exponents and roots, and basic algebraic organizational skills. This course is designed to have students master these skills without the use of a calculator. Placement will be based on the 8th grade Placement Test results and department department recommendation. This course will be offered as a summer bridge option only. This course will be offered as a summer bridge option for elective credit only.

This course is designed for the incoming freshmen students who need further skill preparation before taking Algebra 1. Students selecting this course possess basic arithmetic skills, but may not be ready for the abstraction of algebra. The emphasis of the course will be on the skills needed to bridge the gap between the concrete concepts of arithmetic and the language of algebra. A scientific or graphing calculator is required. Consecutive enrollment in Introduction to Algebra and Algebra 1 is required. This course will be offered for elective credit only.

This is a first-year course in algebra using real number operations, variables, exponents, and graphing to solve equations, inequalities, and other types of algebraic problems.  The course work will be incremental in nature and will stress the cumulative review process as a means of mastering the topics presented.  A scientific calculator is required with the TI-30XIIB or TI-30XIIS being recommended.  Successful completion of Algebra 1 fulfills the Math Core 1 requirement.

Algebra 2 is a continuation of Algebra 1.  Algebra 1 topics are reviewed and expanded to include such topics as complex numbers, systems of equations, variations, advanced graphing, and introductory trigonometry.  The applications of algebra in such fields as geometry, trigonometry, and chemistry will be emphasized.  The coursework will be incremental in nature and will stress the cumulative review process as a means of mastering the topics presented.  A scientific calculator or graphing calculator is required.  Successful completion of Algebra 2 fulfills the Math Core 2 requirement.

This is a second year course in algebra using real number operations, variables, exponents, roots and graphing to solve a variety of mathematical and real world problems. Polynomial manipulation and all types of equation solving will be covered. Complex numbers and trigonometry will be introduced. The applications of algebra will be emphasized. A TI 83 or TI 84 graphing calculator is required. Successful completion of Algebra 2-Essentials fulfills the Math Core 2 requirement.

This course covers all aspects of geometry. All of the standard elements of geometry will be introduced visually, analytically, inductively and finally deductively. The students will make conjectures and then investigate those conjectures in a variety of ways. Geometric concepts will be connected to students’ daily lives and to other disciplines such as art, architecture and technology. A scientific or graphing calculator is required.   Successful completion of Geometry fulfils the Math Core 3 requirement.

This course continues the development begun in the Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 courses. Practice in the fundamental skills of algebra, formal geometry and trigonometry is provided while advanced topics are introduced and practiced. Heavy emphasis is given to the algebra of logarithms and all phases of trigonometry including trigonometric equations, identities, and the equations and graphs of sinusoids. A TI 83 or TI 84 graphing calculator is required  Successful completion of GTA fulfills the Math Core 3 requirement.

This course is the preparatory course for calculus. It is the culmination of the study of elementary functions, trigonometry, analytical geometry and logarithms. It also contains calculus topics of continuity, limits and the language and behavior of functions. A TI 83 or TI 84 graphing calculator is required. 

The purpose of this AP course in statistics is to introduce students to the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data.  Students are exposed to four broad conceptual themes:

1. Exploring Data:  Describing patters and departures from patterns
2. Sampling and Experimentation:  Planning and conducting a study
3. Anticipating Patterns: Exploring random phenomena using probability and simulation
4. Statistical Inference: Estimating population parameters and testing hypotheses

A TI 83 or TI 84 graphing calculator is required. 

*It is highly recommended that all students in an Advanced Placement course take the Advanced Placement Exam offered each May by the College Board.

This course is an intensive, fast-paced preparatory course for the Advanced Placement Calculus AB exam. The College Board curriculum will be followed and the students will be expected to take the AP exam. Topics to be covered will include the development of limits, derivatives, integrals, trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, curve sketching, related rates, continuity, areas under curves, volumes, maximums, minimums, mean value theorem, and logarithms. A TI 83 or TI 84 graphing calculator is required. AP- style problems will be incorporated throughout the course. Practice AP tests will be administered and assessed.

*It is highly recommended that all students in an Advanced Placement course take the Advanced Placement Exam offered each May by the College Board.

This course includes all of the topics of AP Calculus AB, as well as the following topics: vectors, Taylor Polynomials, convergence, divergence, Taylor and MacLaurin Series, rotations, parametric equations, polar equations for conics, slope fields, and differential equations. A TI 83 or TI 84 graphing calculator is required.
