This course focuses on real-world applications of mathematics. Students will build upon many of the concepts that were covered in grade 9, and explore new topics. It is vital that all students attend class regularly, and catch up on any missed homework in a timely fashion.

Students will be expected to have a good understanding of fundamental numeracy skills, including arithmetic and algebra. Students who need help mastering these basic skills, or who could benefit from extra help with homework, should check out our school’s Counting On You program.
