Meets G2 in Rm 23
Course Overview
The College Prep Course includes the study of all the topics mentioned in Geometry A; however, the Accelerated course explores topics in more depth and examines more challenging aspects of the topics, to facilitate the student’s ability to handle a level of complexity beyond that of beginning Geometry. Other Learning Targets will be included as teacher pace dictates. A scientific calculator is required.
Course Expectations
Students are expected to comply with the MHS Code of Cooperation.
