Materials from daily newspapers, consumer magazines, and Web sites keep the content relevant and current. Top

Algebra 2
Algebra 2 is the study of the complex number system, symbolic manipulation, and functions. Students discuss, represent, and solve increasingly sophisticated real-world problems using advanced algebraic and data analysis techniques incorporating technology. They also study the properties of functions, the algebra of functions, matrices, and systems of equations. Linear, quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, polynomial, and rational functions are studied with an emphasis on making connections to other disciplines and as preparation for a multitude of careers. Students apply advanced data analysis techniques to find, justify and use the best-fit model from all function models. Communication of the problem-solving skills used is an important part of this course. Top

Honors Algebra 2
Algebra 2 with Analysis is an intensive, accelerated course intended to prepare students for advanced mathematics courses. Algebra 2 with Analysis focuses on the use of technology and data analysis to develop students’ thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills. Properties, applications, algebra, and parametric representation of functions; matrix algorithms; and linear, quadratic, radical, exponential, logarithmic, polynomial, and rational functions are studied.   Data analysis techniques include the use of re-expression and residuals to find and verify best-fit rules. Applications as well as the properties relevant to advanced mathematics also are studied. Top

PreCalculus
Precalculus completes the formal study of the elementary functions begun in Algebra 1 and Algebra 2. Students focus on the use of technology, modeling, and problem solving involving data analysis, trigonometric and circular functions, their inverses, polar coordinates, complex numbers, conics, and quadratic relations. Discrete topics include the Principles of Mathematical Induction, the Binomial Theorem, and sequences and series.Top

Honors PreCalculus
The formal study of elementary functions is extended in this course. Students apply technology, modeling, and problem-solving skills to the study of trigonometric and circular functions, identities and inverses, and their applications, including the study of polar coordinates and complex numbers. Vectors in two and three dimensions are studied and applied. Problem simulations are explored in multiple representations—algebraic, graphic, and numeric. Quadratic relations are represented in polar, rectangular, and parametric forms. The concept of limit is applied to rational functions and to discrete functions such as infinite sequences and series. The formal definition of limit is applied to proofs of the continuity of functions and provides a bridge to calculus. Top

IB Precalculus
This course builds on the work and modeling in Algebra 2 with Analysis. Further emphasis is given to probability, circular functions, two- and three-dimensional vectors, conics, and complex numbers. The concept of limit, derivative, and power series is introduced. Students may complete the internal assessment and sit for the standard-level IB Mathematical Studies examination . Top

IB Math Studies
This course builds on the concepts of Algebra 2 and Geometry in preparation for the standard-level IB Mathematical Studies examination. Students examine functions (transformation and applications), linear programming, probability, statistics, trigonometry, sequences and series, and solid geometry. Top

Statistics and Mathematical Modeling (SAMM)
Semester A: Topics of this course include data analysis, probability, simulations, inferential statistics, normal and binomial distributions, techniques of sampling, confidence intervals and hypotheses testing. Students use exploratory methods to identify patterns and make decisions. Emphasis is placed on applications and the use of statistics to solve real-life problems.

Semester B: Topics presented in this course are chosen from discrete mathematics topics including Cryptography and Coding, Game and Graph Theory, Architecture, Trigonometry, Fairness and Apportionment, Careers, Investment and Finance, and College Placement Test Review. Students learn an application-based approach to the study of mathematical modeling. Top

AP Statistics
Students engage in the exploratory analysis of data making use of graphical and numerical techniques. They generate conjectures about relationships among variables. Association is distinguished from causation. Data sets are collected according to a well-developed plan from which inferences will be made. These data sets lay the groundwork for an ongoing, yearlong project. Students are expected to produce appropriate models using probability and simulation, and statistical inference. Models and data interact in statistical work; models are used to draw conclusions from data, while the data may support or discredit the model when analyzed with inferential methods. This course is the equivalent of a non-Calculus-based introductory college statistics course. Top

Calculus with Applications
The introductory topics of this course include limits and continuity of functions, derivatives of functions, the definite integral, and their real-world applications. Students find derivatives numerically, represent derivatives graphically, and interpret the meaning of a derivative in applications. Previously studied functions will be analyzed using calculus concepts. The relationship between the derivative and the definite integral is developed as well. Students will model real-world situations involving rates of change using difference or differential equations. Top

 AP Calculus
Calculus AB: The topics studied in AP Calculus AB are those traditionally offered in the first year of calculus in college, and designed for students who wish to obtain a semester of advanced placement in college.
