The Mathematics Department offers courses from the technical level to the Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate levels. Students gain skills in real world application as well as higher level mathematics skills to prepare them for further study at the collegiate level. We expect students to solve problems by numerical, graphical and algebraic methods. All courses use the TI graghing calculators. Although we have classroom sets of calculators, students are encouraged to get their own so they have them at home for homework. Students (especially those studying geometry) enjoy the benefits of the math computer lab.
