Mathematics
The Math Department provides a comprehensive program, servicing
students at all levels of ability. The courses for those who need
additional time to develop their fundamental math skills include
pre-algebra, Algebra IA and Algebra IB.
Consumer Math is a non-college preparatory
class that allows students to review basic math concepts that
apply to real life applications in budgeting, insurance, interest,
mortgages and measurement.
The standard college preparatory classes
offered are Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Trigonometry/Pre-Calculus.
Honors courses are offered in Geometry, Algebra II, and Trigonometry/Pre-Calculus.
Advanced Placement classes are offered in Calculus AB, Calculus
BC and Statistics.
All math courses emphasize critical
thinking, problem solving, mathematical concepts, applications,
and preparation for standardized testing.
All math teachers provide a minimum
of 2 hours of tutoring per week. There is a math lab that is offered
daily for one hour after school.
It is our hope that our students in
mathematics will recognize the mathematical precision that is
God’s world and more clearly understand the attributes of
God’s character – immutability, wisdom and order.
