*This course may be taken in place of Algebra I as the graduation requirement.
1 Credit, Grade 9
GEOMETRY
Geometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the measurement, properties, and relationships of points, lines, angles, surfaces, and solids. This course is designed so the students can develop skills and concepts from the relevant statements in the Kentucky Core Academic Standards for Mathematics in order to earn the high school graduation credit for Geometry.
*Course required for graduation.
PREREQUISITE: Algebra I
1 Credit, Grades 9-10
PRE-AP GEOMETRY
This course will cover the same standards as Geometry but at a more rigorous level and accelerated pace by providing extensions and enrichment.
*This course may be taken in place of Geometry as the graduation requirement.

TECHNICAL MATH I
Some mathematical concepts from Algebra, Geometry, and Trigonometry and applications relevant to these topics are studied. Topics to be covered include unit conversions, variation, measurement of geometric figures, and solving right and oblique triangles using trigonometry. Emphasis is on applications in the various technologies. This course will be geared towards students who will enter the workforce or attend a technical school.

AP PRE-CALCULUS
This course is designed for students to attain the concepts necessary to be successful in a Calculus course, an AP Calculus course or a College Calculus course. Students will review the necessary Algebra content for success and will learn the necessary trigonometric concepts for success in Calculus.
PREREQUISITE: Algebra II
1 Credit, Grades 10-12
AP CALCULUS AB/BC
AP Calculus AB is roughly equivalent to a first semester college calculus course devoted to topics in differential and integral calculus. The AP course covers topics in these areas, including concepts and skills of limits, derivatives, definite integrals, and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. The course teaches students to approach calculus concepts and problems when they are represented graphically, numerically, analytically, and verbally, and to make connections amongst these representations.
AP Calculus BC is roughly equivalent to both first and second semester college calculus courses and extends the content learned in AB to different types of equations and introduces the topic of sequences and series. The AP course covers topics in differential and integral calculus, including concepts and skills of limits, derivatives, definite integrals, the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, and series. The course teaches students to approach calculus concepts and problems when they are represented graphically, numerically, analytically, and verbally, and to make connections amongst these representations. Students learn how to use technology to help solve problems, experiment, interpret results, and support conclusions.
PREREQUISITE: Pre-Calculus
1 Credit, Grades 11-12
FINANCIAL LITERACY
This course is designed for students who have completed courses containing all the required high school Kentucky Academic Standards (KAS) for Mathematics. If students have not completed courses containing all the required KAS for Mathematics, a Personal Finance (Math Credit) course should attend to standards students still need. This course is designed to provide students with the knowledge and skills to manage one's financial resources effectively for lifetime financial security. Topics include economics, money in the economy, budgeting, credit, consumer rights, investments and retirement planning, beyond what was addressed in the student’s foundational courses. A Personal Finance (Math Credit) course may include, but is not limited to, topics found in the (+) standards of the KAS for Mathematics. Leadership development will be provided through the DECA/FBLA student organizations.
1 Credit, Grades 9-12
DUAL CREDIT COLLEGE ALGEBRA (MAT 150)
This class is taught in conjunction with ECTC and follows a curriculum that includes operations on rational expressions, radicals, functions,, and complex numbers, set theory, solving and graphing various functions and analysis of their graphs, systems of equations and difference quotient. Student must have a qualifying ACT Math score of 22 or higher to enroll.
PREREQUISITE: Algebra 1 and Geometry
