Geometry offers a rich and engaging subject to explore with students! Students will initially focus on plane Euclidean geometry, which allows for both synthetic and analytical approaches, and enables students to develop their logical reasoning skills. Then, exploring congruence, similarity,  and symmetry through geometric transformations and exploring and applying theorems about triangles and quadrilaterals will help students develop their problem-solving abilities. While trigonometry opens doors to real-world applications and deeper mathematical understanding, circle geometry provides a robust theoretical environment to hone problem-solving and reasoning skills even further.

Algebra 2 continues students’ mathematical journey, begun in Algebra 1, of combining the concrete world of numbers into the sometimes abstract world of functions and other topics. The course thoroughly prepares students for the oncoming rigor of Pre-Calculus and beyond, yet does so in a manner that is compelling and rewarding, and fosters an appreciation for the real-life applications of each topic explored, as well as for math itself.
