In a minimum of three years of study, students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills and apply those to real-world situations. The focus of the Mathematics Department is for students to grow in their understanding of mathematics skills and concepts. Most students must successfully pass Algebra II as part of their three-year program. Four years of Mathematics are recommended for students looking to attend a four-year college after graduation. Pre-Calculus and Calculus are recommended for students planning a Math or Science college major.
