Avon School District

When students enter Grades 7 and 8 at Avon School, they have multiple pathways for typical and advanced math courses: Grade 7 and 8 Mathematics or High School Algebra I. While all courses allow students to be challenged and thrive through their content and rigor, it is necessary that students demonstrate appropriate readiness for Algebra I to ensure their own academic success. Because of the challenges that come with the High School Algebra I content and workload, meeting benchmark criteria alone will not guarantee success in the course. It is very important that students who are eligible and choose to participate in the advanced placement program recognize the commitment they are making. Students must be motivated, diligent with their studies, and willing to seek help when needed.
