Mathematics

The Mathematics Department focuses on three areas of study in the math curriculum - Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II - with ample opportunity for each student to customize her course of study in upper-level courses, such as Trigonometry, Calculus, Statistics, ad Discrete Mathematics. Each course strikes a balance between classic arithmetic skills and problem-solving skills, inviting students to learn the basics of different forms of mathematical thought and then apply that information to new situations via skills of critical thought. Mathematics is about more than just memorization it is about application of new skills, creativity, development of logical thinking and collaborative problem solving.
