Overview

 

Three credits of Mathematics are required to graduate from CMASAS. The minimum requirement is that all three credits must be at Algebra I level or higher. It is recommended that students complete two credits that are balanced between 1 credit of algebra, 1/2 credit of geometry, and 1/2 credit of data & statistics content. The third credit should address the student's future education and career aspirations. This allows students more opportunities to explore rigorous mathematics aligned to their desired futures. Meet with PEC to discuss the sequence that will best meet your specific education and career goals. All courses meet graduation requirements except for Algebra Prep and Pre-Algebra.
