Attention 7th Grade Families: ARMS Math Portfolio Group


The ARMS Math Portfolio Group takes place after school but it is not a club. The group functions
as a fast-paced three semester class with homework, classwork, and tests. This class is designed
to cover the content of honors 9th grade math.
 
Students will begin the ARMS Math Portfolio Group as 7th graders and continue the work as 8th
graders. Students who successfully complete the portfolio during 7th and 8th grades have the
opportunity to take the 10th grade math class as 9th graders at ARHS. Any 7th grade student can join
the group; however completion of the portfolio is contingent on maintaining both a rapid pace of
learning and meeting high assessment criteria.  
 
Students who participate in the portfolio group are expected to:
Attend one or both of the after school sessions, Mondays and Wednesdays, from 2:30 p.m.
to 3:45 p.m for the second half of 7th grade and all of 8th grade.
Complete assignments and assessments.  Sessions for 7th graders will begin on Monday, January 25, 2016. The first two weeks will serve as a trial period for interested students to experience the work. After which parents will be invited to hear more about the expectations for completion of the portfolio.
