We at Time4Learning view ourselves as partners with parents in ensuring that students finish high school with the skills they need to be successful in college level courses. For mathematics, in particular, that means providing a standards-based, college-prep program that is focused on the major math concepts while using many different types of multimedia tools to engage students and inspire a greater interest in mathematics.

On this page you will discover what 12th graders should know in math, learn more about the general 12th grade math objectives, and find out how Time4Learning’s grade 12 math curriculum helps homeschool families achieve their goals for this important year of education.

Which Math Courses Should a 12th Grader Take?

For students aiming for college, 3-4 years of mathematics are recommended during high school.  By 12th grade, most students will have completed Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry, so high school seniors may want to focus on a higher level mathematics course such as Precalculus or Trigonometry.

Students taking an advanced mathematics course will learn concepts like:

  • Graphing exponential and logarithmic functions
  • Probability distributions
  • Sequences, series, and proofs by induction
  • Trigonometric functions, transformations, and reciprocal functions
  • Solving trigonometric equations
  • Vectors and vector operations

Objectives for High School 12th Grade Math

With STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) careers at an all time high, it is more important than ever that high school students enter college with a strong foundation in mathematics. 12th graders who take an advanced math course during their senior year give themselves a leg up in the college admissions process–particularly if they will be majoring in a math or science-related field.

To be college-ready, grade 12 math practice should focus on building skills such as:

  • Reasoning abstractly and quantitatively
  • Statistical modeling
  • Using appropriate tools strategically
  • Modeling with probability
  • Visualizing graphs of functions
  • Solving systems of equations
