Taught by Mrs. Victoria Rose.

STARS offers a Pre-Algebra course using the Saxon Math 8/7 book as a resource. This course provides an excellent summary of the basic skills required to move into Algebra. It can be considered to be a Middle School Math course that bridges elementary school to high school math. Public schools seem to be moving some students into Algebra as early as sixth grade depending largely on the skill level of the student. But the movement into Algebra at any grade level requires the exposure to a wide range of general math knowledge and the mastery of key skills essential to the ability to be successful in Algebra. This course provides that knowledge and the ability to master those critical skills. The course includes coverage of basic geometry and probability and statistics. The STARS instructor at this time has an extensive background in teaching both middle school math and Algebra both in public schools and here at STARS.
