Summary:
|
The District's Educational Services Department has made recommendations for our district-wide course catalog updates. At this time, we are submitting a new Special Education Math course that we feel will be beneficial to our students. This course does not meet the A-G guidelines.
Advanced Algebra with Financial Applications Essentials is a mathematical modeling course that is algebra-based, applications-oriented, and technology-infused. The course addresses college preparatory mathematics topics from statistics and probability: Employment and Salary, Income Taxes, Banking, Household Budgeting, Independent Living, and Retirement Planning. The course allows students to experience the interrelatedness of mathematical topics, find patterns, make conjectures, and extrapolate from known situations to unknown situations.
The above course has been approved by the Director of Curriculum and Instruction and the Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services.
