GRADE LEVEL:  9, 10, 11, 12                                                                       scientific calculator, ruler, compass and protractor

This course begins with basic concepts:  addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in algebra, linear sentences, distances, slopes, exponents, polynomials, systems of equations, parabolas and quadratic equations, and functions.  The students will extensively use the calculator in realistic situations. This course is a requirement for college and most technical school programs.

GEOMETRY                                                                                                 DURATION:  90 Min. – 18 Wks.
CREDITS:  1.0                                                                                               APPROXIMATE COST: Cost of
GRADE LEVEL:  9, 10, 11, 12                                                                      scientific calculator, compass, ruler and protractor
PREREQUISITE:  Completion of Algebra 

This course is the study of points, lines, planes, angles, polygons, circles, solids, reflections, transformations, coordinate geometry, logic and indirect reasoning.  The format will use calculators to relate subject matter to the outside world.  The nature of proof and many patterns of geometric proof are explored.

ADVANCED ALGEBRA                                                                               DURATION:  90 Min. – 18 Wks.
CREDITS:  1.0                                                                                              APPROXIMTE COST: $95 – 
GRADE LEVEL:  9, 10, 11, 12                                                                      for a required graphing calculator.
PREREQUISITE:  Completion of Geometry and recommend C or better in Algebra

This course is a review and extension of procedures necessary to solve simple, quadratic, and polynomial equations and inequalities.  New concepts included are graphs and equations of conic sections, analytic trigonometric functions and their applications.
 

GEOMETRY A                                                                                            DURATION:  90 Min. – 18 Wks.
CREDITS:  1.0                                                                                             APPROXIMATE COST:  Cost of

PREREQUISITE:  Completion of Algebra                                                      scientific calculator

This course is the study of points, lines, planes, angles, polygons, circles, solids, reflections, transformations, and coordinate geometry.  The format will use calculators and computers to relate subject matter to the outside world.  This course is designed for students who have experienced difficulty in developing algebra skills.

PRE-CALCULUS                                                                                        DURATION:  45 Min – 1 Year
CREDITS:  1.0                                                                                              Required supplies - Graphing
GRADE LEVEL:  10, 11, 12                                                                         Calculator
PREREQUISITE:  Completion of Advanced Algebra

This course is appropriate for students who wish to pursue post high school courses of study (technical school or college) such as fields of medicine, math, engineering and physical science.  Students planning on taking AP Calculus are required to take this course.  The class integrates statistical, algebraic and pre-calculus concepts in work with functions and an intuitive approach to limits.  Graphing calculators are used in plotting functions and analyzing data.  The study of trigonometry and circular functions is also included.
