Lincoln Academy Math Department:
Our mission is to know each student as an individual, to meet them where they are, and to lead them as far in the study of mathematics as we are able.
The goal of the mathematics department is to prepare all students to use mathematics and problem solving skills in further education or work. The mathematics program focuses on mastering the objectives of each course as well as problem solving, communicating mathematically, reasoning mathematically, and applying mathematics to real-world situations.Ā Ā
Three credits in mathematics are required for graduation. College-bound students should complete at least Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II. Since math plays an integral role in modern life, the Math Department encourages every student to study mathematics each year. Students are required to have a calculator for all math classes.Ā
