What Makes Our Math Program Unique

Our philosophy to teach scholars how to think, not what to think, is a big part of our curriculum, even in mathematics! Many of our courses include a final project that connects the concepts learned and apply them in real-life situations.

We have found that teaching conceptual math makes a huge difference in our scholars’ learning. We want our scholars to understand the “why” behind math and this in-depth way of learning gives them the chance to go beyond the numbers. We also offer small class sizes and additional support in math lab classes and after-school math tutoring, which provides more one-on-one opportunities.

Courses For All Skill Levels

No matter what skill level your scholar is at, your scholar can explore the extent of mathematics they choose. If your scholar needs extra support, you can enroll in our elective math credits like our Math Lab or Math for Life courses to provide extra one-on-one tutoring time with our mentors.

Looking for courses that can prepare them for the AP calculus exam or furthering their education at a postsecondary institution? Your scholar can get the benefits from that, too!

While we do require a math placement test when first enrolling, many of our math courses are open to all grade levels as long as they meet the prerequisites and obtain appropriate mentor approval.

ACT Preparation

Because many of our students choose to opt out of the SAGE test, Paradigm Schools uses the ACT as a benchmark to evaluate our scholars. If you want your child to feel prepared for future education, you can feel confident in the education they receive at Paradigm Schools. No matter where their future takes them, our mentors are trained to help prepare scholars succeed by following our mission.

Note for New Scholars

Scholars transferring into Paradigm Schools are required to take a math placement test, so your child can be placed in the math class that matches your scholar’s comprehension and skill level. This ensures each new scholar’s success to make the transition from one curriculum at another school or homeschooling to our courses as smooth as possible.

Please contact our front office to make an appointment for this exam.

  • I love Paradigm. My children have never been happier, and have found a love of learning that was missing in their previous education!

    Julia H.

    I went to Paradigm all through high school. Best experience ever. Not only did it help me focus on my strengths, but it also prepared me for college with its challenging curriculum that makes you think outside the box. The mentors there care about each of their students individually, and want nothing more than the students’ success.
