The 5th grade math curriculum is aligned to the Ohio Content Standards for Math and will focus on the critical areas of mathematical fluency and measurement. Students may also be exposed to elements of developing fluency in common factors.

The 6th grade math curriculum is aligned to the Ohio Content Standards for Math and will focus on the critical areas of ratio and rate, division of fractions, rational numbers, using expressions in equations, and statistical thinking.

The 6/7 grade math curriculum is aligned to the Ohio Content Standards for Math and will focus on the critical areas of proportional relationships, rational numbers and expressions, and surface area and volume of geometric shapes. This is an accelerated course and students should be prepared to move at a faster pace of learning with both grade 6 and part of the grade 7 Ohio Mathematics Curricula. 

The 7th grade math curriculum is aligned to the Ohio Content Standards for Math and focuses on four critical areas: (1) developing understanding of and applying proportional and linear relationships; (2) developing understanding of operations with rational numbers and working with expressions and linear equations; (3) solving problems involving scale drawings and informal geometric constructions, and working with two- and three-dimensional shapes to solve problems involving area, surface area, and volume; and (4) drawing inferences about populations based on samples.

Student learning will focus on mathematical topics of probability and expected value, describing variability and comparing samples, proportional and linear relationships, three-dimensional figures and volume, the Pythagorean Theorem and irrational numbers, and exponents. This is an accelerated course. Please see the honors/accelerated criteria on page 3.  Students should be prepared to move at a fast pace of learning with both grade 7 and part of the grade 8 Ohio Mathematics Curricula. This course is aligned to the Ohio Content Standards for math and is intended to prepare students for Honors Algebra I in 8th grade.

Student learning will focus on various mathematical models, including graphs and equations. The students will examine variability and association between two numerical or categorical variables. Next, the students will focus on a fundamentally important relationship connecting geometry and algebra called Pythagorean Theorem. The students will then focus on exponential relationships, in which quantity grows larger or smaller at a changing rate rather than a constant rate. The students will develop their understanding of congruence and similarity of geometric figures. Finally, the students will explore the topic that early algebra would focus on almost exclusively: the use of symbols.  This course is designed to prepare students for Algebra 1 at the high school.

Student learning will focus on critical areas that deepen and extend understanding of linear and exponential relationships by contrasting them with each other and by applying linear models to data that exhibit a linear trend, and students engage in methods for analyzing, solving, and using quadratic functions. Students will experience mathematics as a coherent, useful, and logical subject that makes use of their ability to make sense of problem situations.  Students analyze and explain the process of solving an equation. Students explore many examples of functions, including sequences. Students use regression techniques to describe approximate linear relationships between quantities. Students extend the laws of exponents. Students compare the key characteristics of quadratic functions to those of linear and exponential functions. This is a high school level course for credit. Please see the honors/accelerated criteria. Students should be prepared to work at a faster pace and expect high school level work. Students will take the high school Algebra I End of Course (EOC) test.

Requires dual enrollment at Perry High School. Each course runs 1 block for each semester. These are high school level courses for credit. Please see the honors/accelerated criteria. Students should be prepared to work at a faster pace and expect high school level work. Students will take the high school Algebra I End of Course (EOC) test.
