Mathematics & Computer Science

The Mathematics Department offers a wide selection of courses that focus on the use of logical thinking skills. Studying Mathematics extends far beyond the practice of solving Math problems.

Through Mathematics, students learn how to persevere when faced with a difficult problem. They increase their ability to reason while practicing how to construct a viable argument in a positive, productive manner.

Through Math, students also learn how to attend to precision which helps their communication skills. All these skills can be used in any life situation inside and outside of the Math classroom.

This is the reason that both core and elective Mathematics courses are designed to enhance these respective skills. The department’s standards-based curriculum is aligned to the MA Common Core State Standards.
