The focus of the math program at Augustine Hills School is to help students understand their world mathematically. Students need to understand how mathematics relates to the world around them. Understanding math in this way prepares students for the use of rote calculations and concepts found throughout their academic career. Methods employed in our math program include online learning, direct instruction, and application to real life situations.

Algebra 1 is designed to give students a foundation for all future mathematics courses. The fundamentals of algebraic problem-solving are explained. Students will explore: foundations of Algebra, solving equations, solving inequalities, an introduction to functions, linear functions, systems of equations and inequalities, exponents and exponential functions, polynomials and factoring, quadratic functions and equations, radical expressions and equations, and data analysis and probability. Throughout the course, Common Core standards are taught and reinforced as the student learns how to apply the concepts in real-life situations.
