Students ready to take their math skills to the next level can enroll in AP Calculus AB (A)—a rigorous, college-level course designed to build a strong foundation in advanced mathematics. This course mirrors the first semester of a college calculus class and aligns with the College Board’s AP® Calculus AB framework, offering students an exceptional opportunity to earn college credit while still in high school.

Throughout the semester, students explore key concepts such as limits, continuity, derivatives, methods of finding derivatives, and applications of derivatives. Each topic emphasizes both understanding and application, helping students see how calculus connects to real-world problems in science, engineering, and beyond.

Learning takes place through interactive lessons, multimedia presentations, an online textbook, and the use of graphing utilities that allow students to visualize complex concepts. Students will practice critical problem-solving strategies, participate in discussions, and build a portfolio of work that demonstrates their progress and understanding.

This course also includes targeted preparation for the AP Calculus AB exam, including a practice assessment designed to build confidence and readiness for test day. By the end of the course, students will be well-equipped with the analytical and mathematical skills required to succeed in higher education and STEM-related careers.
