Grade 9; one term; one credit

This course includes the use of the language of algebra, operations with real numbers, solutions of linear equations and inequalities, graphing linear equations and inequalities, solutions of systems of equations, problem solving computations with polynomials, factoring polynomials, performing operations with algebraic fractions, solving expressions containing radicals, and solving quadratic equations.

Grade 9,10; one term; one credit

This course content includes the properties, relationships and geometric reasoning pertaining to 1-, 2-, and 3-dimensional figures. Topics developed include the properties of lines, planes, angles, polygons, polyhedrons, circles, cones, cylinders and spheres, the concepts of congruency and similarity as applied to polygons, perimeter, area and volume of geometric figures, methods of reasoning, types of proofs, and coordinate geometry.

Prerequisite: Algebra I

Grade 10,11,12; one term; one credit

Algebra II covers numbers systems (real and complex), relations and functions (including linear, quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, polynomial and rational functions), exponents and radicals, solution of equations and inequalities, conic sections, systems of equations, rational expressions, and probability and statistics.

Prerequisite: Algebra I

Grade 11,12; one term; one credit

This course extends Algebra II concepts as well as placing an emphasis on trigonometry. This class is intended to further prepare students for success in Precalculus.  Students scoring high enough in Algebra II may skip this course and move directly to Precalculus.

Prerequisite: Algebra II

Grade 11, 12; one term; one credit.

Precalculus includes properties, graphs, inverses and application of trigonometric functions. The algebra transformation and application of linear, exponential, logarithmic, polynomial and other special functions are studies. Sequences and series are expanded to explore the concept of limits. Graphing utilities are used frequently.

Prerequisites: Algebra II with "C" or better and/or teacher recommendation.

Grade 11,12; one term; one credit

Calculus is a more in-depth and rigorous approach to the study of functions and their graphs, limits of functions, the derivative and applications of differentiation (maximum and minimum, related rates, velocity, acceleration), the integral and applications of integration, differential equations and geometry of conic.

Prerequisites: Pre-Calculus with "C" or better and teacher recommendation.

Bridge Math was developed by the state of Tennessee to help and encourage seniors who have scored below an 18 on the ACT (math section).  Skills are developed in an environment that promotes learning beyond skill and drill techniques. New skills are introduced in conjunction with appropriate mathematical concepts and are related to previous learning.  Multiple problem solving strategies are taught.
