  7. OPTIONS FOR NEXT YEAR Algebra 3 Precalculus

  8. College Prep Algebra 2 will provide opportunities for your child to build upon prior learning and extend his/her knowledge of concepts from Algebra to prepare for next year’s math course. In February, your child’s math teacher will recommend your child for either College Prep Algebra 3 or Precalculus. Students who are recommended for College Prep Algebra 3 for next year will have the opportunity to take Precalculus the following year. Students who are recommended for Precalculus for next year will have the opportunity to take Calculus the following year.

  9. To provide the best course placement, any student who is recommended for Precalculus next year will need to possess higher level thinking skills, be able to apply studied concepts to new situations, possess abstract reasoning skills, and possess good student skills. Scores from key chapter tests will be considered for the recommendation; these chapters include trigonometry, logarithms, and systems of linear equations. Additionally, homework completion, previous standardized test scores, and semester final scores will be taken into consideration.
