Mathematics
Upper School math courses emphasize the nature of mathematical thought as well as the development of facility with the applications of mathematics; students gain a deep understanding of principles before applying them. Three course sequences offer each student the best fit in terms of pace, depth, and level of abstraction. Teachers assess progress to determine the best sequence for all students, and students may switch between sequences with departmental approval. The chart below provides an overview of the three course sequences.
Differential and Integral Calculus can be used as preparation for the AP Calculus AB Exam; Honors Differential and Integral Calculus can be used as preparation for the AP Calculus BC Exam; Adv. Prob/Stats can be used as preparation for the AP Statistics Exam.
