For those incoming freshmen students wanting to challenge Algebra
1, they need to have covered all the goals and objectives
outlined in the Algebra 1 XL curriculum. We have also given some
sample problems on Algebra 1 to illustrate how we’d like students
to annotate answers (clearly showing all steps in a calculation)
and also to show the style of question you could expect to get on
Algebra 1 challenge exam (not intended to be an all inclusive
list). If students successfully challenge Algebra 1, they will be
placed in Geometry or Geometry XL.
Entering freshmen at Jesuit High School will take a placement
exam in the following subjects: math, English and science. So
that you may know what courses are available to your son in these
areas, the following is a brief overview of the courses in which
he may be placed with the criteria for each. For English, he may
start in English 1, 1XL, or 1A/B. For math, he may be placed into
Algebra 1, 1XL, 1B, Geometry, Geometry XL, and – occasionally -
Algebra 2 Honors. Your son may start in General Science or Pre-AP
Biology.
