    Course Description: The purpose of Math III is to continue with a progression of mathematical courses.  This third course in the sequence of courses is designed to provide students with a rigorous program of study in mathematics. This course requires students to perform above and beyond the previous Math II course.  

     

    Honors: The overall purpose of honors courses is to provide a more rigorous curriculum in which instruction is expanded and special activities focus appropriately on both depth and breadth of content. Teachers may place additional emphasis on the application of content within each course.

It will be considered late otherwise.  To receive full credit, you are to show your work in your notebook.
