    Honors Algebra 2 Course Description

     

    Honors Algebra 2 is a year-long course and is recommended for students who excel in mathematics. The course proceeds at a faster pace than Algebra 2. Therefore, additional topics include Exponential and Logarithmic Functions as well as Matrices.

     

    Both classes require a notebook, pencil, colored pencils, graph paper and scissors. A textbook, workbook and chromebook will be provided by the district.

    •   Grades will be updated weekly.

      Late Work

       All assignments are due on the assigned due date.  If a student needs more time on an assignment, communicate with me before turning in an assignment late.  All late work will be given credit based on effort and timeliness.  If turning in work late becomes a consistent issue, we will need to schedule a meeting to understand the causes and effects of the student's late work. 

      If there is any missing work, it will be a 0 in the gradebook until it is turned in.  It is up to the student to turn in any missing work before each unit ends.

      Completing work on time is extremely important. Submissions outside of the submission window may be:

      1. Penalized by deducting marks for each day past the end of the submission window.
      2. Automatically given a minimum grade. (zero)
      3. Given no feedback/comments.

       

      A final semester exam will be administered in each course. Semester weights include:

      Quarter 1 40%

      Quarter 2 40%

      Final Exam 20% 

       

      Same applies for the second semester.

      Academic Dishonesty: Academic dishonesty of any kind will not be tolerated in this course.  Students are expected to perform all assigned work themselves unless otherwise noted. Any form of cheating may result in an F for the assignment/assessment.
