Pre-Advanced Placement Math
The Pre-AP (Enhanced) Mathematics program at BCI provides our most accomplished mathematics students with the opportunity to broaden the scope of their mathematics learning at their grade level, and to provide them with the expanded problem solving opportunities that they might not normally experience in their regular class. These courses would also serve as a foundation for those students wishing to take AP Calculus or AP Statistics in Grade 12.
In 2021-2022, the Bluevale Mathematics Department will offer a Pre-AP Mathematics course in Grade 11 only. Due to a change by the Ontario Ministry of Education, Grade 9 mathematics will be destreamed and consequently we will not be offering Grade 9 Pre-AP math.
Students in a Pre-AP (Enhanced) Mathematics class will:
• study the regular mathematics curriculum of their grade level
• explore areas of mathematics outside of the regular curriculum
• cultivate creative thinking in mathematics
• participate in all mathematics contests at their grade level in order to learn a variety of
problem solving techniques.
Students will be evaluated primarily on the regular curriculum of the course, but they will also be evaluated on Pre-AP topics added to the curriculum. Students in 11 Pre-AP Math will write a different final exam than students in the Grade 11 University (MCR 3UI) course.

pre-Ap Math in 2022-2023
Due to both the introduction of Grade 9 destreaming and the changes in our mode of learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic, decisions regarding the future of Pre-AP Mathematics at Bluevale will be made at a later date. We thank you for your understanding.
