Mathematics
St. Theresa School has adopted the California State
Standards as the minimum standard for its math curriculum.
The program provides ambitious expectations for all students,
with modifications for qualifying students. Every grade level
has a carefully developed set of mathematics expectations.
These expectations are divided into 5 areas: number sense,
algebra and functions, measurement and geometry, statistics,
data, analysis and probability, and mathematical reasoning,
Additional outcomes emphasized in the 7th and 8th grade
expectations include topical strands in Algebra 1 and
Geometry. Additional outcomes for all grades (K-8th) focus on
the use of technology and how it influences mathematics. We
now offer split math classes in the 7th and 8th grade. One
class is taught at grade level and the other is taught at an
accelerated pace. Students are given an entrance exam at the
beginning of the school year. Math placement is based on test
results and standardized test scores.
