Math

Philosophy

The Briarcliff Mathematics Department believes that a strong mathematical foundation is increasingly essential for opportunity and success in the 21st Century.  All students must, therefore, engage in challenging and meaningful mathematics that align with the Common Core Standards.  This curriculum is focused on developing deep understanding, coherence, fluency, modeling and application of multiple problem-solving approaches.  This process is best supported by a home/school partnership that recognizes the crucial role of good thinking and study habits in cultivating lifelong learners.
