Mathematics
All freshman taking Formal Geometry are placed in
the same sections. Honors classes are offered in Algebra II, Algebra
III, and Precalculus. For the honors courses and Advanced Placement
Calculus, students apply and are selected by the Math Department
based upon grades and teacher recommendation.
During April, which is Math Education Month, the
Math Department offers special activities including problem of the
week, design-a-T-shirt contest and a poetry contest. The Math League
meets twice monthly and competes at surrounding schools eight times
a year.
Computer labs, math software, and scientific and
graphing calculators are available for use in all level classes. All
students are required to take at least three math courses. We,
however, recommend that students take a math course every year.
