Required Summer Math Work Assignments
Students in all grades will be required to complete summer math work assignments. The assignments will serve to help students stay abreast of the important foundational and prerequisite skills needed for their mathematics class in the Fall. Completion of the assignments is mandatory and the topics covered will be assessed on first quarter summative assessments.
Alongside each assignment, students are provided with links to textbook resources and/or tutorial videos. If students need additional assistance with completing their assignments, office hours will be available by appointment only. Students seeking assistance must complete a Summer Math Assistance Request Form.
