Prerequisite/s: Must be taken while also enrolled in Algebra I

This course is a mathematics support course for Algebra I, providing additional time to build the foundations necessary for high school math courses, while concurrently having access to rigorous, grade-level appropriate courses. The five critical areas of Algebra Enrichment align with the critical areas of Algebra I: Relationships between Quantities and Reasoning with Equations; Linear and Exponential Relationships; Descriptive Statistics; Expressions and Equations; and Quadratic Functions and Modeling. However, whereas Algebra I contains exclusively grade-level content, Algebra Enrichment combines standards from high school courses with foundational standards from the middle grades. *This course counts as a Mathematics course for the General Diploma only, or as an Elective for the Core 40, Core 40 with Academic Honors and Core 40 with Technical Honors diplomas

Algebra I Academic formalizes and extends the mathematics students learned in the middle grades. Algebra I Academic is made up of 5 strands: Real Numbers and Expressions; Functions; Linear Equations, Inequalities, and Functions; Systems of Equations and Inequalities; Quadratic and Exponential Equations and Functions; and Data Analysis and Statistics. These critical areas deepen and extend understanding of linear and exponential relationships by contrasting them with each other and by applying linear models to date that exhibit a linear trend, and students engage in methods for analyzing, solving, and using quadratic functions. The eight Process Standards for Mathematics apply throughout the course. Together with content standards, the Process Standards prescribe that students experience mathematics as a coherent, useful, and logical subject that makes use of their ability to make sense of problem situations.

PRIME Math course utilizes curriculum developed by the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB) that includes and reinforces the Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Statistics skills necessary for postsecondary success. This course emphasizes understanding of math concepts rather than just memorizing procedures. PRIME math emphasizes students' reasoning and sense making about procedures (e.g. why to use a certain formula or method to solve a problem). This equips them with higher-order thinking skills in order to apply math skills, functions, and concepts in different situations. The course is intended for students who currently have achieved the minimum math requirements at the secondary level, but need additional experiences to enhance their mathematical knowledge before pursuing credit-bearing courses at a postsecondary institution.
