Series Details

About

Quadratics is a topic that often shows up in Algebra I and II. If you know nothing about Quadratics, then this series will be a great way to prepare you for it! The first session in this series will start at a basic level and we will dive into quadratic equations, word problems, graphs, etc in future sessions.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

You will be withdrawn from the series if you have two unexcused absences (since some topics are built off other topics). Additionally, you MUST complete an exit ticket for each lesson in the series (even if you have an excused absence). Failure to complete two exit tickets will result in withdrawal. There are chances to redeem missed exit tickets.
