Overview
Algebra 1 credit requirement can be successfully completed through two full-year courses. The mathematics courses that satisfy the Algebra 1 credit requirement include the following sequence of courses:
- Algebra 1-A (1200370) and Algebra 1-B (1200380; or
- Access Algebra 1-A (7912080) and Access Algebra 1-B (7912090)
A certified school counselor or the principal’s designee must advise the student that admission to a state university may require the student to earn three additional mathematics credits that are at least as rigorous as Algebra 1.
Algebra Requirements and Credits
A student can earn a full credit for Algebra 1-A and a full credit for Algebra 1-B.
Algebra 1-A should have a graduation subject of Mathematics and pass or fail will not impact the requirement for graduation. Since the student does not have to take the Algebra 1 EOC to complete Algebra 1-A, it does not satisfy the graduation requirement for Algebra.
Algebra 1-B is treated like Algebra 1 and should have a graduation subject of Algebra and 30% of the grade should include the Algebra 1 EOC. Students meet the assessment graduation requirement if they pass the Algebra 1 EOC.
