Students applying to the program are able to work confidently with abstract representations of fundamental mathematical concepts. They work effectively with whole numbers, integers, rational numbers and their equivalents. These students are developing mathematical reasoning processes and analytical techniques in order to solve more complex problems, and they may be able to use a more efficient solution strategy if one is available. Testing will be done remotely on the morning of March 13, 2021 from 9:00 until 10:30 am.
Sixth and seventh-grade students who meet the following requirements may apply:
- Score in the 90th percentile or above on the standardized Mathematics test administered in their school.
- Complete the application process.
- Receive the recommendation of their current grammar school/junior high mathematics teacher.
- Demonstrate mastery on the Proficiency Exam of PreAlgebra skills administered during March 2019.
The Accelerated Math Application must be submitted through your current Mathematics teacher.
Tuition for this course is $1,000 and an iPad is required.
Honors Algebra I class meets Monday-Friday from 7:45 a.m. to 8:30 a.m.**
Honors Geometry class meets Monday-Friday from 8:05 a.m. to 8:50 a.m.**
**(tentative)
Classes meet at Regina Dominican and students must bring an electronic device of their choosing (iPad, laptop or tablet)
Students who have successfully completed coursework in the Accelerated Mathematics program will receive an official transcript and course credit from Regina Dominican. Should a student enroll at another high school, acceptance of the credit is at the discretion of the institution.
