Grading:
Notebooks – 35%
Classwork – 30%
Quiz/Laptop – 10%
Test – 10%
Other/HW/Extension - 10%
Each Benchmark – worth 2 test grades
Students should monitor their grades regularly. I do accept late assignments, however all missing tests, quizzes, assignments must be turned in no later than 2 weeks from the due date.
Tardies:
1. First time late is a warning.
2. Second time late -5 on the do-now.
3. Third time late -5 on the do-now and phone call home.
4. Fourth time late is after school/lunch detention and a phone call home.
5. Fifth time late is a Referral and phone call.

In this course you will:
- Investigate and analyze function (linear, quadratic, exponential, and logarithmic) families and their characteristics.
- Use knowledge of transformations to write an equation, given the graph of a function (linear, quadratic, exponential, and logarithmic).
- Will collect data and generate an equation for the curve (linear, quadratic, exponential, and logarithmic) of best fit to model real-world problems or applications.
- Use appropriate representations for analysis, interpretation, and prediction of functions which will include algebraic formulas, graphs, tables, and words.
- Determine optimal values in problem situations by identifying constraints and using linear programming techniques.
- Calculate probabilities and apply it to real world problems.
- Analyze what normal distribution is and design and conduct an experiment/survey.
Statement on Academic Integrity
Patrick Henry seeks to maintain an optimal learning environment. General principles of academic honesty include respect for the intellectual property of others, the expectation that individual work will be submitted unless otherwise allowed by an instructor, and the obligations both to protect one’s own academic work from misuse by others as well as to avoid using another’s work as one’s own. All students are expected to understand and abide by these principles. Students representing the work of another as their own will receive a grade of “F” on that assignment. Students will sign a pledge on every assessment indicating that they have neither given nor received help.
