About Pre-Calculus Honors

• This is an accelerated Pre-Calculus course designed to deepen understanding of functions introduced in Algebra 2, while expanding knowledge to include more advanced mathematical concepts

​

• Students explore a variety of relations that do not meet the criteria of functions, engage with foundational topics in discrete mathematics, and begin studying introductory Calculus concepts to prepare for Calculus BC

​

• A strong grasp of key Algebra 2 topics is essential

​

• Success in this course requires active participation, the ability to advocate for their own learning, higher-level thinking skills, consistent work habits, and a meaningful engagement with mathematical concepts.

About PreCalculus Honors….

​

A key component of the course is the development of precise mathematical vocabulary and notation and a deeper conceptual knowledge.

​

These are an essential component not only for clear and accurate mathematical communication but also for understanding the rigorous language and structure of Calculus.
