At Saguaro High School the Math Department considered mathematics more than just a study of numbers and daily assignments, but a way in which to make students think in logical patterns and to gain certain skills for later years. To increase stu dents, interests, the teachers individually tried different teaching methods. The department also field-tested two new text- books and added Algebra II-Trigonometry accelerated class for sophomores this year. Only one year of math is required for our students to graduate.
