Grade 9-12.
Bass Chorus is a non-auditioned ensemble for grade 9-12 tenor and bass voices. Emphasis is placed on fundamentals of vocal technique as it applies to the changing voice, as well as music literacy. Through the study of a varied selection of music literature, students enhance their understanding of music notation and other elements of music. Bass Chorus performs at all choral concerts. Participation in concert performances outside of the school day is required.
Grade 9.
This is the initial choral experience for grade 9 soprano and alto voices. Emphasis is placed on fundamentals of vocal technique and music literacy (understanding music notation). Music is selected from all historical and stylistic periods. Cecillian Singers performs at all choral concerts. Participation in concert performances outside of the school day is required.
Grade 11-12. Prerequisite is PreCalculus.
This calculus course reviews Precalculus concepts and introduces a study of limits, derivatives, integrals, and functions including trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions. A graphing calculator is required (TI-84 or equivalent is recommended).
Grade 10-12. Prerequisite is Algebra 2 Trigonometry & Statistics or higher. Weighted Grade.
The Advanced Placement course in statistics introduces students to the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data. Students who successfully complete the course and AP examination may receive college credit and/or a higher placement in college. A graphing calculator is required (TI-84 or equivalent is recommended).NOTE: A TI-89 is not equipped with a statistics package.
A workbook fee will be charged.
Grade 9-12 Placement required
This online eLo course develops the algebraic concepts from Algebra I in greater depth. Emphasis is placed on basic operations associated with the real number system, polynomials and their various operations, graphs of linear equations, equalities and inequalities, matrices, quadratic functions, exponents and exponential functions. Algebra 2 is an essential course for those who plan to continue the study of mathematics in high school and college.
Grade 10-12. Successful Completion of Algebra 1, Completion of Geometry recommended.
This course is devoted to providing an understanding of advanced algebra topics and expanding on the concepts of Algebra 1 (MATH1002). The Math Practice Standards are the foundation of lessons, teaching students how to reason and think mathematically. Algebra 2 units include: linear models, linear systems, functions and relations, modeling and solving quadratic equations, polynomial functions. If the student intends to take Pre-Calculus the following year, a course studying Trigonometry is also required. A graphing calculator is required (TI-84 or equivalent is recommended).
Grade 9-11. Placement required. Weighted Grade.
This course covers the same topics as MATH1004 Algebra 2/Trigonometry & Statistics with greater depth and some additions including sequences and series. Starting with a brief review of some basic axioms and properties in algebra, the course moves quickly to newer topics, integrating real-life applications. The Math Practice Standards are the foundation of lessons, teaching students how to reason and think mathematically. A graphing calculator is required (TI-84 or equivalent is recommended).
Grade 9-12. Successful completion of Algebra 1. Completion of geometry recommended.
This course expands on concepts covered in Algebra 1 (MATH1002), but develops a deeper understanding while introducing more advanced algebra topics. The A2TS units include: linear models, linear systems, functions and relations, modeling and solving quadratic equations, polynomial functions, periodic functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, probability and statistics, and sequences and series. The Math Practice Standards are the foundation of lessons, teaching students how to reason and think mathematically. A graphing calculator (TI-84 or equivalent is recommended) is required.
Grade 9-10. Placement required. Weighted Grade.
In addition to covering the topics listed above for Geometry (MATH1003), this course provides a more rigorous and in-depth approach to covering geometric ideas and formal proofs. The Math Practice Standards are the foundation of lessons, teaching students how to reason and think mathematically. A graphing calculator (TI 84 or equivalent, compass, and protractor are required.
Grade 9-12 Placement required
This online eLo course provides students with the fundamental vocabulary, properties, language, content and procedures of geometry. Topics include triangles, circles, polygons, parallel lines, and inequalities, with an introduction to coordinate and solid geometry. Emphasis is placed on construction of formal proof, the analysis of the nature and structure of a logical system and on problem solving skills. This course includes applications of the students’ algebraic skills.
