The study of math at Palmyra encompasses a wide field. Regardless of the area the student chooses to explore, the background he receives affords him a broad understanding of many useful mathematical operations. The transactions of our daily lives demand a comprehension of mathematical concepts. General Math I and II, Business Math, and Bookkeeping pro- vide the foundation for conducting these exchanges.
