Why Consider Taking High School Math Electives?
There are several reasons to use non-traditional math electives. Perhaps your student isn’t college-bound and wants to take less academic math courses such as consumer math or bookkeeping. Your student may have finished the math courses for the college track, but still needs high school credits for math. You may have a budding entrepreneur who wants to study everything about math for a small business.
