expected to make deeper connections in order to prepare them to enroll in the next course in the sequence, Honors Integrated Mathematics 2. Text and Materials: Reveal Math Integrated I; graphing calculator Integrated Mathematics 2 Full Year (Two Semesters) Prerequisites: Integrated Mathematics 1 or equivalent OR best-fit mathematical placement This integrated math course incorporates a strategic interweaving of algebraic and geometric concepts with authentic connections among theory and application, algorithm, and mathematical practices, designed to naturally scaffold the learning of mathematics. The purpose of this course is to formalize and extend the mathematics that students learned in Middle School with an emphasis on learning geometric concepts through algebraic application, reasoning and modeling. Students will reason, communicate, and make connections to prepare for mathematics throughout high school and beyond. This integrated math course prepares students to enroll in the next course in the sequence, Integrated Mathematics 2. Text and Materials: Reveal Math Integrated I; graphing calculator Honors Integrated Mathematics 1 Full Year (Two Semesters) Prerequisites: Completion of honors prerequisites OR best-fit mathematical placement This accelerated course incorporates a strategic interweaving of algebraic and geometric concepts with authentic connections among theory and application, algorithm, and mathematical practices, designed to naturally scaffold the learning of mathematics. The purpose of this course is to formalize and extend the mathematics that students learned in Middle School with an emphasis on learning geometric concepts through algebraic application, reasoning and modeling. Students will reason, communicate, and make connections to prepare for mathematics throughout high school and beyond. This integrated math course will be taught at a faster pace and students will be expected to make deeper connections in order to prepare them to enroll in the next course in the sequence, Honors Integrated Mathematics 2.

Students meeting the above criteria take an end of year cumulative assessment for the course they would bypass. A score of 93% or higher on the final exam provides the option to pursue an alternate pathway by advancing to the next course in the mathematics sequence. Best fit placement criteria and procedures are reviewed annually and are subject to revision.
