Algebra

This class will build on concepts learned in the Pre-Calculus and Introduction to Calculus courses. Students will learn advanced concepts that include polynomials, inequality, radicals, and functions. This class is designed to expand on the Algebra and Pre-Calculus curriculum to introduce students to the problem solving strategies required for success on the AMC and AIME competitions.
