Topics covered in this full-year course include fundamental operations, functions and graphs, integers, rational numbers, absolute values, equations in one variable, equations in two variables, simultaneous equations, exponents, polynomials, factoring, fractions, square roots, quadratic equations, graphing quadratic equations, real numbers, fractional equations, and inequalities.  Algebra 1 is a rigorous study of the first level of Algebra. This class will prepare students for further levels of mathematics as well as science courses that require Algebra 1. Students interested in AP exams will gain a solid foundation of mathematical understanding that will support further studies that could lead to AP Calculus and the AP exams.

Before registering, new math students should take the Algebra I assessment and email the teacher the results. The goal of this assessment is to ensure proper placement of students so that they are set up for success. The questions asked are a good indication of whether students are adequately prepared for Algebra I. Please complete this step prior to registering and paying the deposit. The teacher can answer questions and provide guidance.

This course meets twice per week in 60-minute sessions.
