Summer Assignment

This is your chance to build a set of meaningful resources

Congratulations on making the choice to challenge your intellect and improve your character.  This course will be demanding, thought-provoking and rewarding.  Pre-Calculus has come to represent an integral component in measuring college-readiness; taking on this endeavor means you’ve made a choice that will affect the opportunities life will provide for you.  It’s not my intention to oversell the importance of pre-calculus or appear hyperbolic.

 

The issue of social inequity and social injustice has deep ties to the availability of credible mathematics in rising demographics.  As global forces push the competitive nature of success you’ll need to work even harder to achieve your goals.  I’m here to help you accomplish the first steps toward reaching your version of success, but it needs to start with you.

 

This summer you’ll need to stay active and motivated.  I value your time.  I’ve thought through this assignment with the greatest of consideration.  In order to remain competitive and begin our class with deeper exploration you’ll need to practice the following ideas.

I can't wait to meet each of you! This assignment is due Monday after your first week of school. You'll have a couple of days to get help and a weekend to finish!
