In Math III Support classes, thousands of juniors across the state who barely passed freshman and sophomore math or failed their finals have a second chance to succeed. It is one of the ways schools help teens falling behind get back on track for graduation. In the support class, general and special education students expected to work at the same level learn how to survive Math III, which has been accelerated to include advanced algebra , trigonometry and statistics under the Georgia Performance Standards curriculum. The state offers a free online course through Georgia Virtual School to help students review Math I, II and III. Mathematics ExPreSS Online is available for free and features sample questions to prepare the Class of 2012 for the new Georgia High School Graduation Test. Parents can also use it to help their kids understand math homework.
