Mission For The Class

Mr. Berlage believes that it is important to empower his students a strong
sense of self-worth and self-responsibility for their actions and education.  

The mission of this class is to develop problem solving skills to be used
inside and outside the mathematics classroom and develop a connection between
the material we are studying and real life situations. As students, you will
also be improving your test-taking, reading and writing skills, as well as
confidence in your own mathematical ability.
