#121 Advanced Algebra 2 1 year 1 unit
Prerequisite: A or B in Algebra 1, recommendation of previous mat teacher, and parental permission
Advanced Algebra 2 is designed for those students who desire, and can handle, a pace of study that is much faster than that of a regular Algebra 2 class. Because of this faster pace, a more detailed study of the topics in an Algebra 2 course can be accomplished along with the introduction of topics that are not usually introduced until Trigonometry.
#221 Geometry 1 year 1 unit
Prerequisite: Completion of the Algebra 2 series
Geometry is a blending of two and three-dimensional Euclidean concepts into a logical and workable form. The inductive approach is stressed, followed by the logic of the deductive method. Coordinate geometry is included to point out how algebra and geometry complement each other. Basic algebra skills are strengthened by a review of basic terminology, notation, concepts, and skills. A good algebra background is recommended.
#325 Advanced Geometry 1 year 1 unit
Prerequisite: Advanced Algebra 2 and recommendation of previous instructor
This course contains the same topics as Geometry, but at a faster rate with more in-depth study of many topics. In addition, more coordinate geometry and transformations and other special items are included as time permits. This course is intended for the talented math student.
#423 Transition To College Math 1 year 1 unit
PREREQUISITE: Algebra 2, Geometry and instructor's recommendation
This course is designed for the senior who wishes to continue with mathematics in his/her senior year in a way that will review previous course work and prepare the student for beginning college math courses. Stresses in this course will be extended knowledge of algebra and geometry.
#425 Trigonometry & Analytic Geometry 1 year 1 unit
Prerequisite: C average in Algebra 2 and Geometry, and recommendation of previous instructor
This course presents the notion of function including polynomial functions and their zeros, circular and trigonometric functions, exponential functions the field of complex numbers, and conic sections. This course forms a basis for any computer science or college mathematics course.
#525 Advanced Trigonometry & Analytic Geometry 1 year 1 unit
Prerequisite: At least an average of B in Advanced Algebra 2 and Advanced Geometry, or recommendation of previous instructor
Only the talented mathematics students should elect to take this course. Course content includes circular and trigonometric functions, polynomial functions and their zeros, circular and trigonometric functions, exponential functions, the field of complex numbers, exponential and log functions, conic sections and coordinate geometry. The student will also participate in college-type mathematics examinations.
#526 Advanced Placement Calculus 1 year 1 unit
Prerequisite: At least a B average in Advanced Trigonometry or recommendation of previous instructor.
This course is designed for the math student who will be entering the field of mathematics, applied science, computer science, or engineering, and to prepare the student for the Advanced Placement Examinations in mathematics. The course will emphasize use of the "Rule of Four" with concepts, results, and problems being expressed graphically, numerically, analyticallyl, and verbally. Topics include functions, graphs, limits, continuity, differentiation, integration, and an extension of Algebra, Geometry, and Trigonometry. Advanced Placement Calculus, in general, requires much study time outside of class due to the difficulty of the subject. Unless the teacher advises otherwise, it is expected that each student will take the Advanced Placement Calculus AB Exam. (Cost is approximately $30.) More detailed information on this course can be found at http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/ap/sub_calab.html?calcab A graphing calculator is REQUIRED for this course.

The curriculum for this course will include a review of all concepts taught in AP Calculus. Additional topics will include: advanced integration, sequences and series, L' Hopital's Rule, parametric equations, and polar coordinates. The course will emphasize use of the "Rule of Four" with concepts, results, and problems being expressed graphically, numerically, analytically, and verbally. Unless the teacher advises otherwise, it is expected that each student will take the Advanced Placement Calculus BC exam. The cost is approximately $30. More detailed information on course expectations can be found at http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/ap/sub_calbc.html?calcbc. A graphing calculator is REQUIRED for this course.
#535 Calculus 1 year 1 unit
PREREQUISITE: Credit in Trigonometry or Advanced Trigonometry
This course is designed for students who wish to further their math education following Trigonometry. The first quarter of the academic year will review Trigonometry and cover Pre-Calculus topics. Topics will include functions, exponents, regression models, transformations, and trigonometric identities. The remainder of the course will cover the Calculus concepts of limits, continuity, differentiation, and basic integration. The course will emphasize use of the "Rule of Four" with concepts, results, and problems being expressed graphically, numerically, analytically, and verbally. A graphing calculator is REQUIRED for this course.
#536 Advanced Placement Statistics 1 year 1 unit
Prerequisite: Advanced or Regular Trigonometry with recommendation of previous instructor. May be taken in place of or in addition to Advanced Placement Calculus.
This course is designed for the Senior who will be entering such fields of study as: psychology, sociology, computer science, mathematics, biology, nursing, business, linguistics, economics, political science, education, pre-medicine, or pre-law. This course will prepare students for the Advanced Placement Examinations in Statistics. This course will introduce students to the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data.
