THE CENTER FOR HOME EDUCATION

Saxon books are skill level books, not grade level books. It is essential that each student is placed in the text that meets the skill level of the individual student. Success in a Saxon book guarantees success in the next Saxon book. Students will develop the understanding they need to resolve more complex problems and functions with this step-by-step course.

Algebra 1 Covers topics including signed numbers, exponents, and roots; absolute value; equations and inequalities; scientific notation; unit conversions; polynomials; graphs; factoring; quadratic equations; direct and inverse variations; exponential growth; statistics; and probability.

REQUIRED Students must take a placement test after registering for this class. The results must be turned in at the front desk of the Center. The math teacher will evaluate the results to make sure that your student is ready for Saxon Algebra 1. HERE

REMEMBER- We are a team! CHE is not “the” school. You are!

Parents will oversee all homework grading according to the guidelines, correcting, and administer any take home tests. *Grading of homework should occur daily. At no time should a student fail to turn in graded homework for 2 weeks in a row. In-class parent meetings will be scheduled as needed to instruct on grading procedures.

As per the CHE covenant, failure to comply with the requirements of the Saxon Algebra math class could result in the student failing and not being allowed to take the next level of Saxon Math at the Center. We want your student to be successful! Help us to help you have a fabulous year! We love helping you!
