With a teacher to student ratio of 6 to 1 (and sometimes less), every Wildwood student receives a significant amount of individual instruction.

We utilize Open Up Resources for our curriculum and Desmos for an online learning platform.

​

Our math program offers 3 math classes. Math 1 is typically geared to students in 5th and 6th grades with emphasis on foundational math concepts. Math 2 focuses on all pre-algebra content. Math 3 has students who are ready for higher levels of math including algebra and geometry.

 

At a minimum, our math program prepares every 8th grader leaving our program to enter algebra 1 in high school. However, the majority of our students will complete all of algebra 1 by the end of 8th grade.  Our small class sizes means every student receives a significant amount of individual instruction and guidance. We have daily work assignments, bi-weekly quizzes, and trimester projects to assess student proficiency and a more traditional percentage grading criteria.

​

All math classes with have both coursework and applications in real-life settings with experiential learning. It is imperative that our math program include real world problem solving and projects.
