• Algebra A : Course Description - Intro to Algebra

    This course continues an expanded, two-year Algebra I sequence designed for students who are not yet prepared for the academic challenges of the traditional one-year Algebra I curriculum. Focusing on review of pre-algebra skills and introductory algebra content, Algebra I-A allows students to deepen their understanding of real numbers in their various forms and then extend their knowledge to linear equations in one and two variables. 

    Algebra I-A features ample opportunity for students to hone their computational skills by working through practice problem sets before moving on to formal assessment.

    Second year course topics include a review of introductory algebra; measurement; graphing data; linear equations; systems of linear equations; polynomials; factoring of polynomials; factoring of quadratic functions; rational expressions; and radical expressions.

    The two course sequence features ample opportunity for students to hone their computational skills by working through practice problem sets before moving on to formal assessment.
