Overview
The Math Department at Lake Catholic offers a challenging and supportive curriculum designed to help students grow in problem-solving, logical thinking, and confidence with numbers.
Students are required by the state of Ohio to complete four math credits, including Algebra 2 by graduation. At Lake Catholic, we go further by offering multiple levels of coursework—including Honors and Advanced Placement (AP) classes—so each student can be placed where they’ll succeed and be challenged.
Tutoring Opportunities
The Mathematics Department provides tutoring services for students in the St. Thomas Aquinas Learning Center.
