In our collaborative classrooms—soon to be enhanced by our state-of-the-art mathematics, science, and engineering center—students progress from foundational concepts to advanced mathematical reasoning, developing confidence in tackling complex challenges. Through engaging discussions and hands-on exploration, they build the mathematical fluency essential for future success.

Departments

Featured Courses

Advanced Algebra, Trigonometry, Precalculus

Covers all techniques, methods, and concepts usually covered in an algebra and trigonometry course, as well as the concepts presented in a traditional precalculus course. Through direct instruction as well as hands-on activities and projects, students finish the course with a solid foundation for calculus and beyond.

Statistics Honors

Paying close attention to local, national and global events, this honors course introduces students to the descriptive and inferential statistical methods that allow them to be competent consumers and handlers of data.

Multivariable Calculus Honors

Multivariable Calculus Honors is reserved for students who have completed AP Calculus BC. In colleges this course is commonly called Calculus III, and it expands the calculus concepts to multiple variables, and to multiple dimensions in 2D and 3D coordinates by studying vector calculus, partial derivatives and multiple integrals.
