Overview
of the CPMP Curriculum
Core-Plus
Mathematics is a four-year curriculum that replaces the traditional
Algebra-Geometry-Advanced Algebra/Trigonometry-Precalculus sequence. Each
course features interwoven strands of algebra and functions, statistics
and probability, geometry and trigonometry, and discrete mathematics.
The first three courses in the series provide a common core of broadly
useful mathematics for all students. They were developed to prepare students
for success in college, in careers, and in daily life in contemporary
society. Course 4 continues the preparation of students for college mathematics.
It formalizes and extends important mathematical ideas drawn from all
four strands, with a focus on the mathematics needed to be successful
in college mathematics and statistics courses.
