Mathematics and Computer Science

Approach

With a focus on nurturing the next generation of innovative thinkers, the Mathematics and Computer Science Department curriculum is designed to challenge and engage students at all levels to become confident and highly capable computational thinkers.

Through courses in algebra, geometry, statistics, calculus, computer science, robotics, and data structures, students develop an advanced understanding and appreciation of how mathematics and computing are essential tools required to navigate our ever-changing world.

Experiential projects and practical applications strengthen skills in problem-solving, critical thinking, and logic, and help students discover pathways for using those skills to tackle real-world challenges.

Application: AP Computer Science

Creativity and technical expertise come to life in our AP Computer Science class. Recently, our talented students proudly presented the projects they’ve been developing throughout the semester. Each project reflects months of dedication and problem-solving, with students writing hundreds of lines of code to bring their ideas to life.
