“In AP Precalculus, students explore everyday situations using mathematical tools and lenses. Through regular practice, students build deep mastery of modeling and functions, and they examine scenarios through multiple representations. They will learn how to observe, explore, and build mathematical meaning from dynamic systems, an important practice for thriving in an ever-changing world” (AP Central). Placement in AP Precalculus is determined by the Mathematical Sciences department.

AP Statistics introduces students to the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data. Students are exposed to four broad conceptual themes: i) Exploring data: Observing patterns and departures from patterns; ii) Planning a Study: Deciding what and how to measure; iii) Anticipating patterns: Producing models using probability theory and simulation; and iv) Statistical Inference: Confirming models. Prerequisites: Completion of Algebra II. Placement is determined by the Mathematical Sciences department.
