Statistics & Probability (S&P) strengthens and expands upon students' understanding of previous math concepts. Students examine many facets of statistics with an emphasis on analyzing and interpreting various statistical measures. Probability is explored and connected to real-life scenarios such as casino games and the lottery. This course serves as a suitable precursor to AP Statistics. In addition, S&P prepares students for introductory college math courses for potential liberal arts or business majors. If a student would like to earn “Honors Option” credit for Statistics & Probability, they will be responsible for the following:
- Complete One Independent Project. Students will choose a project for the Statistics Unit. Students will be provided with several options and must present to a small group.
- Complete 1-2 more challenging problems that are included in classwork assignments.
- Complete Honors Assessments. These will cover the same material as the regular assessments. The least challenging problems will be replaced with more challenging problems.
