We are committed to the preparation of our
students to be productive and satisfied adults in any endeavors they may
undertake. We are especially committed to the development of quantitative
reasoning and problem solving.
"[The
universe] cannot be read until we have learnt the language and become familiar
with the characters in which it is written. It is written in mathematical
language, and the letters are triangles, circles and other geometrical figures,
without which means it is humanly impossible to comprehend a single word of it;
without these, one is wandering about in a dark labyrinth."
- Galileo Galilei, (1564 - 1642)
"Mathematics is the gate and key of the sciences...
Neglect of mathematics works injury to all knowledge, since one who is ignorant
of it cannot know the other sciences of the things of this world. And what is
worst, those who are thus ignorant are unable to perceive their own ignorance
and so do not seek a remedy."
-Roger Bacon (1214-1294)
"How can it be that mathematics, being after all a product
of human thought independent of experience, is so admirably adapted to the
objects of reality?"
Einstein, Albert (1879-1955)
This site is under development. Under development are pages describing all
courses offered and their sequence, information on how students can become more
successful in their math classes, a gallery of pictures showing students engaged
in their math classes, and useful internet links. Check back now and then to see
what we have come up with. Also feel free to give us input on what you would
like to see here as well as feedback on what we have created.
