Integrated I

Integrated I is a 9th grade level course where students will:

Recognize problems in functions, sequences, and data to build foundations for linear and exponentials. Explore constant rate of change in relation to functions, equations/inequalities/systems and geometric figures. Understand rate of change that isn’t linear and growth/decay at a faster rate. Use the statistical process to analyze measure of spread and discern association and trends in 2 variable data. Use constructions and transformations to determine triangle congruence.

Integrated II

Integrated II is a 10th grade level course where students will:

 Focus on formalizing reasoning skills with geometric terms and proof properties. They learn properties of similar figures through proportionality, trigonometry, and 3D shapes. They will explore different functions through transformations such as absolute value, piecewise, radicals, exponentials, quadratics. Students learn how to solve and graph quadratics, connect to applications and circles. 

*Accelerated Integrated II (AIM II) follows all of these topics at a deeper level along with a module about independent/dependent events and compound probabilities.

Integrated III

Integrated III is a 11th grade level course where students will:

Review and apply structure and transformations from linear and quadratics to higher order polynomials, continue their study of polynomial and rational functions by analyzing zeros, graphing, and modeling. Students will study inverted relationships graphically and algebraically through a focus on exponentials and logarithmic functions. Here they will investigate periodic functions through the unit circle, sine, cosine, and tangent. 

*Accelerated Integrated III (AIM III) follows all of these topics at a deeper level along with a module on one-variable stats, variation, and sampling to draw conclusions about populations, including those modeled by normal distributions as they prepare to move into AP Math courses. 

**PLEASE EXPECT AN AP EXAM FEE WITH ANY OF THE FOLLOWING COURSES**

AP StatisticsThis course will cover aspects of probability and introductory statistics that will be tested in an AP format. It is a rigorous course and will be advantageous to those students who will have to take a statistics course in college to complete their degree. For example, most business and science majors need to take a statistics course. For a complete description of AP Statistics, please click here. Students will also take the AP exam in May.

AP Pre-CalculusCommon Core standards will be addressed by covering polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions. These functions, including their domains and ranges, will be explored and interpreted both algebraically and graphically. Other topics will include regression, inverse functions, complex numbers, and limits. Click here for full college board course description. 

AP Calculus(AB) This course addresses all the topics normally covered in an Advanced Placement Level Calculus program. Specific topics emphasized include derivatives, differentials, and integrals of standard and trigonometric functions, limits graphing techniques, and important Calculus theorems. Also, numerous applications to physics, chemistry, engineering, and business are interwoven throughout the lessons and problems sets. This course consists of the study of the derivative and the integral as applied to polynomial, rational, irrational, trigonometric, logarithmic and exponential functions in one variable. At the completion of this course, students will take the AP exam. Click here for full college board course description.

(BC) This second course in single-variable calculus that would be equivalent to a second semester calculus course at most colleges and universities. This course will provide a deeper understanding of the concepts of limit, continuity, derivatives, and integrals which were covered in AP Calculus AB. The major new topics covered in AP Calculus BC are parametric, polar, and vector functions; Euler’s method; improper integrals; logistic differential equations; and sequences and series. The AB subscore from the BC Exam can replace the AB score earned the previous year. Click here for full college board course description. 

Introduction to Statistics

Introductory Statistics is a course covering statistics topics at an understandable level. This introductory course assumes no prior knowledge of statistics but does assume some knowledge of high school algebra 2. Basic statistical concepts and methods are presented in a manner that emphasizes understanding the principles of data collection and analysis rather than theory. Topics covered will include, but not limited to, the following: organizing data, averages and variation, compound & independent probability, binomial probability distribution, normal distributions, and sampling distributions.

Personal Finance

This course introduces students to a variety of different financial issues that they may face in their real life. Topics will include the following: understand the importance of personal financial goal setting and responsibility, and apply those concepts in a consumer-driven, global marketplace; create and manage a financial plan for short-term and long-term financial security to make informed spending and saving decisions that are compatible with changing personal goals; and analyze and apply appropriate and cost effect risk management strategies as it pertains to insurance and warranties. Students will learn practical topics such as monthly payments, car buying, loans, mortgages, investing, tax filing, credit cards, and budgeting.

College AlgebraThis course is for students who passed Algebra II but need to master additional skills necessary for success in Precalculus. Topics will include but not be limited to the following: further study of polynomials, quadratic equations, rational and radical expressions and exponents, logarithmic functions, graphing, trigonometry, conic sections, sequences and series, and applications. College Algebra is a rigorous mathematics course in which a mastery of Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II is necessary. National, State, and District academic content standards will be addressed by covering polynomial, rational, exponential and logarithmic functions, and analytic geometry.

Geometry and ConstructionThis course will focus on the fundamental skills of Algebra 2, Geometry, and Statistics. National, State, and District academic content standards will be addressed by covering linear equations, functions, linear inequalities, systems of equations and inequalities, exponents and exponential functions, advanced topics of geometry and statistics. Problem solving, analysis, critical and visual thinking, mathematical and spatial reasoning, and real-world application strategies as they apply to the construction industry will be emphasized.
