Text Alternative for Math Pathways Overview
Oxford School District Math Pathways Overview
Students take Math 5.
After completing Math 5, students have the option to take either Math 6 or Math 6 Accelerated.
After completing Math 6 or Math 6 Accelerated, students have the option to take either Math 7 or Compacted Math 7.
If students complete Math 7, they will then take Math 8 (Pre-Algebra). If students complete Compacted Math 7, they will have the option to take either Math 8 (Pre-Algebra) or Compacted Math 8/Algebra 1.
If students complete Math 8 (Pre-Algebra), they can then take Algebra 1; if they previously completed Math 7 (not Compacted Math 7), then they also have the option of taking Foundations of Algebra & Algebra 1. If students complete Compacted Math 8/Algebra 1, they will then take Geometry.
After completing either Foundations of Algebra & Algebra 1 or Algebra 1, students will then take Geometry.
After completing Geometry, students will take Algebra 2.
After completing Algebra 2, students will take their choice of a Higher Math course.
NOTE – The following courses are credit-bearing courses for High School G.P.A.:
- Compacted Math 7
- Math 8 (Pre-Algebra)
- Compacted Math 8/Algebra 1
- Foundations of Algebra & Algebra 1
- Algebra 1
- Geometry
