N/A
1
*Algebra I
In Algebra I, students will analyze and explain the process of solving equations and inequalities; learn function notation and develop the concepts of domain and range; use regression techniques; create quadratic and exponential expressions; and select from among these functions to model phenomena.

*Geometry
In Geometry, students will build a thorough understanding of translations, reflections, and rotations; develop an understanding of similarity and theorems; extend the formulas for 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional objects; investigate geometric concepts of lines; prove basic theorems about circles; and work with experimental and theoretical probability. To be successful in Geometry, it is recommended that students have completed Algebra I.

*Algebra II
In Algebra II, students build on their work with linear, quadratic, and exponential functions to extend their repertoire of functions to include polynomial, rational, and radical functions. Students work closely with the expressions that define the functions, and continue to expand and hone their abilities to model situations and to solve equations, including solving quadratic equations over the set of complex numbers and solving exponential equations using the properties of logarithms. To be successful in Algebra II, it is recommended that students have completed Algebra I and Geometry.
