 * Program of Studies ‘08/’09**

__Algebra 3/ Trig - Part B (2425B)__ This was the only approved course to move forward with Available for current juniors who are taking Alg3 Part A (it will create an opportunity for students who are not proficient) This is not a split of Part A over 2 years. Additional topics have been added to the course to lengthen it. A new textbook will not be adopted for this. The Part A book will be used for Part B (This was designed by Lisa) Please note that the introduction to limits is not in the book and this will have to be supplemented. There might be 2 sections of this course. This might be tough to say right now. It will be a 5.0 level class.
 * Question**: (DH) Will this affect the Algebra II Part B kids? **Answer**: (LG) I don't think so, but Lisa will look into it.
