Algebra 1 lays the essential foundation for all high school mathematics. It serves as the bridge from concrete arithmetic to the abstract thinking required in higher-level math. The course integrates real-world applications throughout, including optional use of a graphing calculator. See the Table of Contents below for a full list of sections and subsections included in the course.
