Summary:
In February 2021, Ygnacio Valley High School submitted and received approval to teach a pilot course -- Financial Algebra. Over the past two school years, Ygnacio Valley High School has offered the course, testing out the curriculum and the assessments. The instructor, David Swenson, was able to deliver the curriculum and obtain feedback from students. Based on his assessment of the curriculum and the feedback from the students, Mr. Swenson finalized the course of study and is seeking Board Approval for the final draft of the course. The course would offer a third-year standards-based math course of study that is UC/CSU A-G approved.
