The Eighth Grade Algebra Program is equivalent to Honors Algebra 1 at Saint Ignatius and meets daily from 7 to 7:40 a.m. following the Saint Ignatius calendar.
There is no tuition or other cost for this course-it is offered as a service to Cleveland Diocesan elementary schools. Boys successfully completing this algebra course with a grade of 87% or higher and who attend high school at Saint Ignatius will be placed into Honors Geometry as freshmen. Due to the high premium on classroom time for this program, students are allowed five absences per semester. Percentage grades will be reported to each student's grade school at the end of each quarter. Please note that each grade school will have differing policies on how they will coordinate their curriculum and records with this program.
In order to qualify for this course, students must take the Algebra Readiness Test and provide a current MAP math score and an email address for a current seventh grade math teacher. Our 2023 tests will be offered Thursday, May 11 at 3:30 p.m. and Saturday, May 13 at 10 a.m. Register today!
