Several dedicated sophomores at Piscataway High School are taking advantage of a new opportunity to challenge themselves by doubling up on their math classes and taking Algebra 2 and Geometry at the same time! Students who completed Algebra 1 in their freshman year and maintained a 90 percent average in the class and on assessments were given the opportunity to enroll in two math courses simultaneously. Frank Wrublevski, Supervisor of Mathematics Grades 7-12, noted that this initiative provides motivated students with the chance to accelerate their math studies and reach Calculus before graduation. Sophie Balcarcel, left, is one of the students excelling on this advanced track, with an average above 90 percent in both courses, reflecting remarkable dedication, perseverance, and a true love for mathematics.
