Class Registration

The purpose of this class is to prepare students for higher math. In this class, we will study the topics of algebra, trigonometry, and geometry.
 

This course begins with a review of Algebra I. More advanced Algebra problems, geometry problems, and trigonometry problems will be reviewed throughout the course to provide an opportunity to master the concepts necessary for success in Pre-Calculus and beyond. The format of Saxon textbooks offers the opportunity to practice newly introduced concepts, but also offers the opportunity to practice previously introduced topics. This spiral approach allows students to master concepts.
