Our Math Philosophy is as follows:

The challenge in offering upper-level math courses is that the SHCC program is set up to offer once-a-week instruction, which typically is not enough for high school math.

In order to accommodate this limited tutor input for the math courses, we’ve implemented the following helps:
• Students have step-by-step solutions available in case they need assistance on their homework during the week.
• For pre-algebra and above, students have the option to purchase a period of a Math Study Group on Thursdays. This study period is exclusively for math and is supervised by an experienced math teacher whose purpose is to answer individual questions and direct group problem solving. This enables students to make sure they have figured out the concepts from the previous week’s teaching time prior to showing up for the next class period. The timing of having the Math Study Group prior to the next math class enables students to ask questions about any problems they couldn’t solve independently-- without the help of the solutions manual.
*Studies show that students in cooperative learning math groups—even gifted students placed in heterogeneous groups—had significantly higher achievement than their peers in traditional programs.
