Placement Exams
Students transferring in from a school outside of the Chatfield articulation area or outside of Jeffco may need to take a placement exam. We will reach out to students who need to complete a placement exam after they have registered with our Registrar.
Honors courses are available in Geometry and Algebra II. Advanced Placement (AP) courses are offered in Pre-Calculus, Calculus AB, Calculus BC, and Statistics.
Concurrent enrollment college credit through Arapahoe Community College is offered for Math for Liberal Arts (MAT 1240), College Algebra (MAT 1340), Introduction to Statistics (MAT 1260), and during the second semester of AP Statistics (MAT 1260). Students who complete AP Calculus BC have the opportunity to take Calculus III (MAT 2431) and Differential Equations Honors (MAT 2561) through Red Rocks Community College.
Graphing Calculator Requirement for Certain Math Courses
A TI-Nspire CX II graphing calculator (non-CAS) is required for all math courses at the Algebra II level and higher. (Algebra II, Honors Algebra II, Math for Liberal Arts, College Algebra, Statistics, AP Pre-Calculus, AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, AP Statistics) For students taking Intermediate Algebra for an extra year of support before taking Algebra II, a graphing calculator is also required.
Students will need to have their calculators every day. These calculators may be purchased online or at many local stores and discount warehouses. Students who qualify for the free or reduced lunch programs should see their math teacher in August. Students are encouraged to engrave their names on their calculators. The CSH math teachers will have an engraver available during the first weeks of school.
CSH requires graphing calculators for many classes for the following reasons:
1. The state and county math standards require students to use the technology.
2. Assignments depend on students having access to a graphing calculator both in class and at home.
3. Students are required to use a graphing calculator on two of the four sections of the AP Calculus tests and all sections of the AP Statistics exam.
4. The SAT and the ACT college entrance tests permit the use of graphing calculators.
(Recommended graphing calculator, TI-Nspire CX II, is shown on the left.)
