Board approves modernized pre‑calculus dual‑credit course for Douglas High School
Summary
The board approved a new modernized pre‑calculus course for grades 11–12 to offer dual‑credit preparation for trigonometry and calculus; board members said it increases dual‑credit opportunities for students.
The Winston‑Dillard School District board approved a new modernized pre‑calculus course at Douglas High School designed as a dual‑credit offering for 11th and 12th graders.
Board members described the course as focused on problem solving, modeling and making connections with science, business and economics to better prepare students for trigonometry and calculus. A motion to adopt the course description was moved and seconded; the board then voted in favor and the chair announced the motion carried.
Administrators said the change expands dual‑credit opportunities and gives students more access to college‑level coursework while still meeting high‑school graduation requirements.
