Mathematics has practical value since it is a necessary tool for many areas of life. The students of Kennedy Catholic High School are required to complete the first three courses of the Math program, including Algebra 1, Geometry and Algebra 2. For those students who are college-bound, we strongly recommend taking a fourth year elective. There are many options for a fourth year of math for those students who are interested.
