MATHEMATICS

Compute, Problem-Solve, Analyze

The Mathematics curriculum incorporates the standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Curriculum. It embodies conceptual areas of mathematics that enable one to compute, problem-solve, analyze, use logic, perform graphic functions, and read and interpret charts, as well as measure geometric concepts. Emphasizing technology, higher-level courses in trigonometry, pre-calculus and calculus are also offered.
