 As students make the tranistion from elementary school to secondary education, they face many challenges and changes. This is true for mathematics as well. They must take a concrete understanding of numbers and apply it!
The mathematics department offers six courses: Math Clinic 7, Pre-Algebra, Math Clinic 8, Algebra Readiness, Algebra and Geometry. Starting this year, all students will have four terms of mathematics.
Most students in seventh grade will be enrolled in Pre-Algebra. Students who make appropriate progress in Pre-Algebra can move into Algebra in eighth grade, otherwise they will continue their preparation with Algebra Readiness. Students enrolled in Math Clinic 7 can progress into Pre-Algebra during seventh grade or into Algebra Readiness the following year. Seventh graders who make appropriate progress in Algebra will move into Geometry in eighth grade.
The math department staff is dedicated to all students' success. Please contact your student's teacher if we can be of assistance.
