Geometry Credit Syllabus

A course that "brings together ALL the concepts of mathematics a student has learned throughout their schooling...and lays the foundation for a new type of math...allows them to describe and understand the behavior of functions, and as a result, any real-world phenomena that those functions represent."  This is a Survey course in calculus taught by an experienced teacher, covering as many topics as time and students' abilities permit.  Graphing calculator is required.

Calclulus AB Credit Syllabus

Provides a review and extends the major topics of Algebra II, with a thorough foundation in the concepts of Trigonometry and introduces the Calculus topic of limits. Graphing calculator is encouraged.

Precalculus Credit Syllabus

This course encompasses all required college preparatory concepts of Algebra II. Moving at a very fast pace, only successful honors level math students should take this intensive and rigorous course. Mathematical concepts are often introduced at a more abstract and theoretical level. Geometric proofs are included throughout the course to improve the student's understanding and logical thought process.

Note: 150 hour credit course meets from 8:00 am to 2:15 pm each day (45 minute break for lunch). Lunch is included in the cost of this course.
