In grades 9-12, students will be exposed to texts of graduating levels of high complexity, integrated language arts study in reading, essay writing, speaking, listening, and critical thinking for college and career preparation and readiness.

The purpose of this course is to provide instruction in the knowledge and skills of English to enable the student to prepare to participate effectively in post-secondary life and a career. A progressive trajectory of skill development will enhance the student's reading, expression, comprehension, and vocabulary through the high school years.

The purpose of this course is to support students who require explicit instruction in the five essential components of reading: decoding, advanced spelling patterns, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. This class will focus on strategies to improve automaticity in reading while teaching phonemic and morphologic awareness skills. Evidence-based approaches to literacy instruction are implemented including Orton-Gillingham, Wilson Reading, and LindaMood Bell. (workbook fee applies)

This course is designed to prepare students who have not mastered the algebra readiness topics. It is the first in a two-course progression designed to prepare students for success in advanced mathematics courses by providing a foundation in algebra and probability. This course will build on the conceptual knowledge and skills students mastered in their middle level mathematics courses in the areas of algebraic thinking, geometry, measurement, probability, data analysis, and proportional reasoning.

This is the second of two courses and will follow the completion of Foundations in Algebra A and continue to analyze the student's preparedness for Algebra I. (End of course assessment will be administered)

This course is designed to give students a foundation for future mathematics courses. The fundamentals of algebraic problem-solving are explained. Students will explore: foundations of Algebra, solving equations, solving inequalities, an introduction to functions, linear functions, systems of equations and inequalities, exponents and exponential functions, polynomials and factoring, quadratic functions and equations, radical expressions and equations, and data analysis and probability.

This course includes an in-depth analysis of plane, solid, and coordinate geometry as they relate to both abstract mathematical concepts as well as real-world problem situations. Topics include logic and proof, parallel lines and polygons, perimeter and area analysis, volume and surface area analysis, similarity and congruence, trigonometry, and analytic geometry. Emphasis will be placed on developing critical thinking skills as they relate to logical reasoning and argument. A graphing calculator is required.

Fundamental skills of mathematics will be applied to such topics as functions, equations and inequalities, probability and statistics, logarithmic and exponential relationships, quadratic and polynomial equations, and matrices. Technology will be used to introduce and expand upon the areas of study listed above. A graphing calculator is required.

This course is designed to help students develop mathematical skills through practical applications and activities that emphasize the application of mathematics in many types of real world endeavors. Topics may include: earnings and taxes, checking and savings accounts, loans, insurance, automobile expenses and housing expenses.

This is one of two fundamental courses designed to formalize concepts learned in the middle grades. Students continue to master basic skills and extend knowledge to prepare for more advanced work. The course also covers fractions, operations with fractions, decimal, percent, ratio, problem solving, basic concepts in geometry, and measuring shapes. The content and pace may be individualized and modifications provided per the Individual Education Plan.

This is the one of two courses and will complement the skills of Fundamental Math A. The content and pace may be individualized and modifications provided per the Individual Education Plan.

Students will participate in math skills needed to participate as an intelligent consumer in today's society. Topics will include the mathematics of personal income, buying a car and related expenses, purchasing various types of insurance, housing, unit pricing, discounts and mark-ups, banking, budgeting, investments, taxes, travel and fitness.
