Mathematics

 Algebra I is a foundational math course that is aligned to the Common Core State Standards for Algebra and requires students to explore mathematics using Illustrative Math and participating in group activities.

NOTE: This course terminates in a Regents exam.

Algebra 2/Trigonometry is a course in which students will practice concepts and questions such as number systems and polynomials, exponents and rational functions, irrationals and radicals, complex numbers, systems and equations, and functions.

NOTE: This course terminates in a Regents exam.

The geometry course is aligned with the Common Core State Standards for Geometry and is designed to help students develop tools to explore two-dimensional and three-dimensional space. Students acquire these tools as they explore and solve problems that involve Euclidean geometry, rigid motion transformations, dilations and similarity, and coordinate geometry. Students will learn how to prove geometric facts about triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles using axiomatic and coordinate geometry proof. Also, students will model real-world objects using geometric formulas for perimeter, area, and volume. Three-dimensional objects such as prisms, pyramids, cones, cylinders, and spheres are explored in different models.

NOTE: This course terminates in a Regents exam.
