Description: Students enrolling in this course are expected to apply prior algebra knowledge in order to enhance current
algebra practices. Algebra 2 is the study of functions: polynomial (linear, quadratic, cubic, quartic), piece-wise,
exponential, logarithmic, radical, rational and absolute value. Functions are explored through multiple representations
and practical application problems show connections between course content and real world application. Function
operations and transformations provide a common thread to link the units of study. Students enrolled in the lab section
experience a lower student-to-teacher ratio and use the extra time to extend classroom concepts, move at a flexible pace,
clarify directions on homework, and reinforce strategies and procedures.

Description: This course is a rigorous continuation of Algebra 1 and is designed for students who have demonstrated an
advanced level of achievement in mathematics. Students enrolling in this course are expected to apply prior algebra
knowledge in order to enhance current algebra practices. Algebra 2 is the study of functions: polynomial (linear,
quadratic, cubic, etc.), piece-wise, exponential, logarithmic, radical, rational, and absolute value. Additional units include
matrices and series/sequences. Functions are explored through multiple representations and challenging
applications. Function operations and transformations provide a common thread to link the units of study. The
curriculum is distinguished by a difference in pace, rigor, and the quality of work, not merely the quantity. Conceptual
understanding of topics is emphasized.
