Geometry Curriculum

Spatial Reasoning and Mathematical Proof for High School Success

Our Geometry curriculum develops spatial reasoning, logical thinking, and proof-writing skills essential for advanced mathematics and real-world problem-solving.

Program Overview

Geometry introduces students to the study of shapes, sizes, positions, and dimensions. Students learn to construct logical arguments, write mathematical proofs, and apply geometric concepts to real-world situations.

The curriculum emphasizes both theoretical understanding and practical applications, preparing students for advanced mathematics and standardized tests.
