Freshman Math Academy

​This past summer the North Smithfield School Department hosted a Freshman Math Academy for the Class of 2021. The Math Academy was developed  for all students. During the Freshman Math Academy students learned to navigate the school building, met new friends and reacquainted with old friends, as well as,  learned concepts and skills that came directly from their first unit of study in math as freshman. The concepts were tied to each student’s freshman math class including,  Honors Geometry, Geometry, Algebra Readiness and Algebra I. We are incredibly thankful to have had local business professionals, Mr. Michael Black and Mr. Ed Yazbak,  come in to share with students “real world” math applications and connections. Students took a survey at the end of the program and gave informative feedback and positive reviews.
