Mathematics
at Bethune Academy is taught in a standards-based classroom where students
use manipulatives and technology to develop a deeper understanding of
mathematical concepts. The teachers are trained in the Rice University
School Math Program and use innovative activities. It is Bethune’s
goal to increase students’ confidence in their own mathematical
skills and to foster their ability to reason and communicate.
