Accelerated Algebra/Geometry A – For students in either Math 8 or Pre-Algebra in middle school; taken first semester of 9th grade. Students will begin their preparation for college-level course work (i.e., AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, and AP Statistics) by studying mathematics within the confines of the following conceptual categories:
GSE Honors GeometryFor students who took Algebra I (private and home school) or whose CCSD middle school accelerated math did not include geometry taken first semester of 9th grade. Students will study the topics of the GSE Honors Geometry course at a deep level.
GSE Accelerated Geometry/ Algebra II Y – a one semester accelerated course for 9th grade students. Math placement test is necessary. Students will continue their preparation for college-level course work (i.e., AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, and AP Statistics) by studying mathematics within the confines of the following conceptual categories:
Accelerated GSE Pre-Calculus – completed second semester of 9th grade or in 10th grade. Students will complete their preparation for college-level course work (i.e., AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, and AP Statistics) by studying mathematics within the confines of the following conceptual categories:
AP Statistics, a college-level course taught on a high school campus, is divided into four major themes: exploratory analysis, planning a study, probability, and statistical inference. Exploratory analysis of data makes use of graphical and numerical techniques to study patterns and departures from patterns. Probability is the tool used to anticipate future behavior of data associated with a given model. Statistical inference is the process used to make decisions stemming from observed. This course is designed for students who want to pursue studies or careers in the quantitative or scientific fields, or fields that rely on statistical analysis of pertinent data.
Advanced Placement Calculus AB
Advanced Placement Calculus AB. In this course, which is similar to most first-semester calculus courses in college, we investigate the fundamentals of differential and integral calculus. Along with typical lectures and assessments, students participate in lab activities and one term project that demonstrate and enrich concepts presented in class. Use of graphing utilities and computers is integrated into the course as well. The prerequisite for this course is Analysis, but students from Trigonometry and/or non-AP Calculus can be enrolled with a teacher recommendation. Completion of this course qualifies students to enroll in AP Calculus BC.
Advanced Placement Calculus BC. This course, which is similar to most second-semester calculus courses in college, continues where Calculus AB ends. New topics include the calculus of series and parametric, polar, and vector functions. Along with typical lectures and assessments, students participate in computer activities and practice for the actual AP exam in May. Use of graphing utilities and computers is integrated into the course as well. The prerequisite for this course is AB, and completion of this course qualifies students to enroll in Multivariable Calculus.
Multi-Variable Calculus
Multi-Variable Calculus involves the study of functions in several variables. Topics include functions, limits, continuity, differentials, directional derivatives, partial derivatives, chain rule, multiple integrals, and applications. This course is designed for strong math students who want to pursue studies or careers in the quantitative or scientific fields. Prerequisites are AP Calculus AB and BC.
Differential Equations This course is ideal for students who have completed Multivariable Calculus and plan to major in a STEM field, particularly fields in engineering, mathematics, or physics. Students will learn to solve and apply first-order differential equations, systems of first-order linear differential equations, and special cases of second-order and higher differential equations. Students will learn to apply the Existence and Uniqueness Theorem to first-order differential equations and special cases of second-order differential equations. Students will learn to perform Laplace Transforms on certain functions, and will apply Laplace Transforms to solve first- and second-order differential equations. Additionally, students will find series solutions to first- and second-order differential equations.
