The conviction of the Mathematics Department is that one learns mathematics best through understanding and practice.  There must be a proper balance between theory, practice and application.  The student must be actively involved in learning.  An environment that allows the student maximum participation in discovery is essential.  It is important that the student be significantly challenged according to his intellectual ability and maturity.  Graphing calculators and computers are learning tools used throughout the mathematics curriculum.

Middle School required courses: Math 6, Math 7, and either Introduction to Algebra or Algebra I

At the successful completion of Algebra I, 1.0 upper school credit is awarded towards the mathematics graduation requirement at the recommendation of the math department. The final grade earned in Algebra I will appear on a student's upper school transcript and is counted in a student's upper school GPA.
