*This is a for credit class.
The Summer Geometry course is a six-week accelerated, extended-level program that covers a full year of geometry in a condensed timeframe. Topics include logic and reasoning, angle relationships, parallel and perpendicular lines, polygons, congruence, similarity, circles, right triangle trigonometry, volume, and area. Students will have a midterm and a final exam, and will receive a mid-semester progress report as well as an end-of-course transcript (pass/fail). GDS rising 9th graders taking the course for acceleration must earn at least an 80% on the final exam to pass. Non-GDS students needing a grade reported to their home school must submit a written request with any required forms by the first day of class. Students may not miss more than 3 days (or 9 hours) of class time. Class will not meet on June 19 or July 4.
This course is intended for students who:
-thoroughly enjoy math and actively engage with challenging concepts and problem-solving
-met and exceeded the expectations of their Algebra 1 course
Families who have questions about whether this course is the right fit are encouraged to reach out to their child’s Algebra teacher for guidance.
