MTH310 Credit 1
A variety of functions will be studied in detail with emphasis placed on linear and quadratic functions. The course will include general concepts of probability, statistics, and matrices. Problem solving and applications to real world problems will be stressed. Problems will be solved numerically, algebraically, and graphically. Application is developed through math investigations and projects. This course is appropriate for students who will be taking the SAT/ACT examination. Prerequisite: Completion of Algebra I or Algebra IB.
Algebra II - Honors 1 credit Core Course – Mathematics Grade 9-11

MTH311 Credit 1
This course will focus on the study of functions, specifically linear, quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, radical, and rational functions. Students will solve real-life problems using algebraic techniques and incorporate data analysis, geometry, trigonometry, and probability into their solutions.

Prerequisite: Completion of Algebra I

Criteria for Recommendation: Completion of Algebra I with a grade of 85% or higher and/or Completion of Geometry – Honors with a grade of 81% or higher; Course can also be taken concurrently with Geometry – Honors.
Statistics 1 credit Core Course – Mathematics Grade 11-12

MTH320 Credit 1
This introductory course in statistics will explore the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing and drawing conclusions from data. Students will study these concepts through direct applications. Topics will include descriptive statistics, probability distribution, sampling methods and sampling distribution, hypothesis tests and inferential statistics.

Prerequisite: Completion of Algebra II or Algebra II – Honors.
Applied Mathematics (formerly Math in the Workplace) Grade 12

MTH360 Credit 1
Applied Mathematics will serve those senior students who are entering the workforce immediately following graduation. Students will learn, develop, and refine mathematical skills necessary to gain employment and develop personal finance skills for the 21st Century.

Trigonometry 1 credit Core Course – Mathematics Grade 11-12

MTH 400 Credit 1
Trigonometry is designed to prepare students for college-level mathematics while exposing them to trigonometric functions and applications. This course is designed for students that are not planning to pursue a career in mathematics, science, and/or engineering. The course will begin with a review of Algebra II, extend through the study of various functions and their properties. In addition, trigonometric functions, identities, right-triangle trigonometry and circular functions will be explored.

Prerequisite: Completion of Algebra II.
Precalculus 1 credit Core Course – Mathematics Grade 10-12

MTH410 Credit 1
This is a course for students who have successfully completed Advanced Algebra II (Algebra II – Honors). It is designed to broaden students’ knowledge of algebraic and trigonometric concepts. Part of the class time will be devoted to the study of equations, inequalities, and functions. The remainder of the class time will be devoted to: the analytic development of trigonometric concepts and applications; parametric and polar systems; conic sections; vectors, and limits. Throughout the course, there will be an emphasis on students representing material in a variety of ways…numerically, graphically, analytically and verbally.

Criteria for Recommendation: Completion of Algebra II – Honors with a grade of 81% or higher OR completion of Trigonometry with a grade of 91% or higher following completion of Algebra II – Honors.

AP Calculus AB 1 credit Core Course – Mathematics Grade 11-12

MTH520 Credit 1
AP Calculus AB is a college-level course designed to prepare students to successfully complete the examination offered by the College Board. The course emphasizes a multi-representational approach to calculus, with concepts, results, and problems being expressed graphically, numerically, analytically and verbally. Topics include, but are not limited to: limits, derivatives, applications of differentiation, integration, applications of integration, fundamental theorem of calculus, L’Hospitals Rule and differential equations. Criteria for Recommendation: Completion of Precalculus with a grade of 81% or higher.
AP Calculus BC 1 credit Core Course – Mathematics Grade 12

MTH540 Credit 1
AP Calculus BC is designed as an extension of AP Calculus AB. Students will prepare to successfully complete the AP Calculus BC examination offered by the College Board. The course will include an extensive AB topic review and in addition will cover the following topics: parametric, polar, and vector functions, analysis of planar curves, conic sections, differential equations, advanced integration techniques, improper integrals, series and sequences, and Taylor and MacLaurin series.

Criteria for Recommendation: Completion of Advanced Placement Calculus AB and AB Exam Score of 3 or higher.
AP Statistics 1 credit Core Course – Mathematics Grade 12

MTH 550 Credit 1
AP Statistics is designed for students planning a career in various fields such as science, math, engineering, business and communications. Statistics is a required course in many college majors, not just mathematically demanding majors. The course will focus on calculating, interpreting, and applying descriptive and inferential statistics, probabilities, experiments and their design, regression analysis, confidence intervals and hypothesis testing.

Prerequisite: Completion of Algebra II.
