calculus, polynomial functions and their zeros, function analysis and graphing, complex numbers, sequences, series, logarithms and
exponents. This course is generally not intended for students who have already completed Algebra II Honors.
2401 PRECALCULUS LEVEL II (Seniors)
This course is intended for students who took Algebra II Level II and want to continue with a fourth year of math. The course prepares
students for a core course in math in college. Topics include graphing and solving quadratic equations and inequalities, solving
polynomial functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, sequences and series, probability and statistics, trigonometric ratios,
functions, equations, graphs, and identities. Department Recommendation Required
2404 PRECALCULUS HONORS (Juniors/Seniors)
This course is for students who took Algebra II Honors or excelled in Algebra II. Both the pace and the depth of material are more rigorous
than the non-honors class. The course begins with function analysis and explores all the necessary topics for studying calculus in college.
Applications of mathematics to various fields will be stressed. Topics include analysis of trigonometric functions, polynomial functions
and their zeros, function analysis, and graphing, complex numbers, sequences, series, probability, logarithms and exponents, and, if time
permits, an introduction to calculus. Department Recommendation Required
2508 STATISTICS AP (Juniors/Seniors)
This is an AP course that involves the study of chance occurrences (probability) and numerical data (statistics). The topics for the course
are divided into four themes: exploratory analysis, study planning, probability, and statistical inference. Exploratory analysis of data
makes use of graphical and numerical techniques to study patterns and departures from those patterns. Data must be collected according
to a well-developed plan. Probability is the tool used to anticipate what the distribution of data will look like under a given model.
Statistical inference will guide the selection of an appropriate model for handling data. A Graphing calculator is required. Department

2334 CALCULUS HONORS (Juniors/Seniors)
This course is an alternative to Calculus AB AP. It is equivalent to a first-semester calculus course for a math or science major at most
colleges. Topics include analytic geometry, limits, continuity, differentiation and integration of polynomials, rational, logarithmic,
exponential, and trigonometric functions in a single variable, applications to maximum and minimum problems, and volume of a solid
of revolution. A Graphing calculator is required. Prerequisite: Precalculus, Precalculus Honors, or Algebra II Honors. Note: This course
is not recommended for juniors who wish to take Calculus senior year. Department Recommendation Required
2338 CALCULUS AB AP (Juniors/Seniors)
This Advanced Placement course is an approach to calculus which emphasizes applications and theory. It is equivalent to a first-year
calculus course for a math or science major at most colleges. This course covers all topics on the AB syllabus for the Advanced Placement
exam. Topics include analytic geometry, limits, continuity, differentiation and integration of polynomials, rational, logarithmic,
exponential, and trigonometric functions in a single variable, applications to maximum and minimum problems, and volume of a solid
of revolution. A Graphing calculator is required. Calculus AB may not be taken after Calculus Honors. Prerequisite: Precalculus Honors
or Algebra II Honors. Department Recommendation Required.
2408 CALCULUS BC AP (Juniors/Seniors)
This course is for students who took Calculus AB AP in junior year and will follow the BC syllabus for the Advanced Placement exam. It
will review the calculus studied in junior year and will include the following advanced topics: additional integration techniques,
L’Hopital’s Rule, improper integrals, parametric curves, polar curves, infinite sequences and series, Taylor polynomials, and differential
equations. A Graphing calculator is required. Prerequisite: students must have successfully completed Calculus AB AP. Department
Recommendation Required
2608 MULTIVARIABLE CALCULUS (Seniors)
This college level course is a continuation of the student’s study of calculus, extending the single variable concepts to three and more
dimensions. Topics covered include vectors and the geometry of space, dot and cross product, surfaces, cylindrical and spherical
coordinates, vector valued functions, differentiation and integration of vector valued functions, functions of several variables, partial
derivatives, differentials, multiple integrals, jacobians, line integrals, Green’s Theorem, and Stokes’ Theorem. Other topics will be
explored as time permits. A Graphing calculator is required. Prerequisite: students must have successfully completed Calculus BC AP as
juniors, with an outstanding AP exam grade. Department Recommendation Required
