Pre-AP Algebra II is an advanced course designed to solidify and extend students’ understanding of functions and data analysis developed in prior mathematics courses. Students build upon their knowledge of linear, quadratic, and exponential functions as they explore logarithmic, polynomial, rational, square root, cube root, and trigonometric functions.
Quantitative literacy is developed through the integration of data sets, contextual scenarios, and mathematical modeling throughout the course. Instruction emphasizes multiple representations of functions, mathematical reasoning, and justification of solutions. Students regularly engage in higher-order problem-solving that connects algebraic concepts to real-world applications.
This course prepares students for advanced mathematics coursework and supports readiness for college and careers in fields such as mathematics, science, engineering, programming, and data analysis.
Students will take the mandatory Algebra II End of Course (EOC) Exam at the completion of this course if Algebra I was completed prior to 9th grade.
