For initial graduation credit, students must enroll in both Fall and Spring semesters. Geometry is a formal development of the geometric skills & concepts necessary for students who will take Algebra 2 & other college preparatory courses. The course provides for consistent use of algebra throughout the year to reinforce skills & concepts learned in Algebra 1, strengthening problem-solving skills in the development of geometric concepts & application of logical principles to geometric proofs. Topics include: points, lines, planes, angles, postulates and theorems, deductive reasoning, special pairs of angles, perpendicular lines, proofs, parallel lines and planes, angles of triangles and polygons, inductive reasoning, and congruent triangles. Earns five of ten required credits for the graduation requirement. UC Approved. Prerequisites and Criteria: Students must maintain an average grade of 90% or higher in Algebra 1 during their first semester to qualify for enrollment in this accelerated math course. To receive credit, students must complete both summer sessions, with each day of attendance covering one week of the curriculum. Due to the fast-paced nature of the course, students may not exceed 1.5 days of absences per semester for any reason, including illness or travel. Exceeding this limit may result in removal from the course without the option for a refund. A minimum grade of C is required to pass and earn credit. Please note that this course is not intended for remediation, and grades will be recorded on transcripts. Students who do not pass must retake the course in the fall semester.
