7th grade Math is designed to reinforce basic mathematic fundamentals: decimals, fractions, percents, proportions, and geometry. Seventh grade math introduces some data analysis, including measures of central tendency, probability, tables and graphs. It also introduces some algebraic concepts like functions with integers, solving simple equations, graphing lines and slope. Seventh grade math is designed to prepare students for Pre-Algebra.
Pre-Algebra assumes mastery of basic mathematic fundamentals--such as Using integers, solving simple equations, proportions, functions, and graphing—in order to reinforce basic algebraic concepts. Pre-Algebra introduces the concepts of factoring monomials, rational and irrational numbers, solving and graphing inequalities, real numbers, right triangles, and two and three dimensional figures. Pre-Algebra is designed to prepare students for Algebra I.
Algebra I is a course designed to help students understand patterns, relations, and functions. Students will also learn to represent and analyze mathematical situations and structures using algebraic symbols. Students will be able to use mathematical models to represent and understand quantitative relationships. Finally, students will be able to analyze change in various contexts.
Geometry is the branch of Mathematics that applies Algebraic principles to plane, solid, and coordinate geometric concepts. Each new concept uses reasoning and proofs to further develop the principles. The course is designed for those students who have successfully completed Algebra I.
Business Math is a course in which basic math skills are applied to functioning in business. Each unit uses the skills taught to be applied to business management. Students will learn the mathematical concepts necessary to manage all aspects of a business from personnel management through production, sales, marketing, and accounting.
Algebra 2 is an extension of the Algebra 1 curriculum. Topics that were first introduced in Algebra 1 will be built upon and applied to problems that require higher order thinking skills. Fundamental skills of mathematics will be applied to such topics as functions, equations and inequalities, probability and statistics, logarithmic and exponential relationships, quadratic and polynomial equations, trigonometric properties, and matrices.
Advanced Math – Advanced Math is the equivalent of a Precalculus course. It completes the formal study of the elementary functions begun in Algebra 1 and Algebra 2. Pre-Calculus blends the concepts and skills that must be mastered before enrollment in a college-level calculus course. The course includes the study of relations and functions, conic sections, exponential and logarithmic functions, trigonometry in triangles, trigonometric functions, and trigonometric identities and equations.
Calculus - Calculus is a prerequisite for students entering advanced fields of study in mathematics, science, engineering, and economics. This course will help the students develop an understanding of the concepts and applications of calculus. Students will work with functions numerically, graphically, and analytically and will then be required to justify or explain their results with words. Students will learn how to model situations with functions, derivatives, and integrals, and learn how they are all inter-related.
