AP Research Course Description (Note: AP Seminar is a prerequisite for students wishing to earn the AP Capstone Diploma). Completing AP Seminar and all its required assessment components is highly encouraged for students to develop the skills to be successful in AP Research; it is not, however, a requirement. This course, the second course in the AP Capstone experience, allows students to deeply explore an academic topic, problem, issue, or idea of individual interest. Students design, plan, and implement a yearlong investigation to address a research question. Through this inquiry, they further the skills they acquired in the AP Seminar course by learning research methodology, employing ethical research practices, and accessing, analyzing, and synthesizing information. Students reflect on their skill development, document their processes, and curate the artifacts of their scholarly work through a process and reflection portfolio. The course culminates in an academic paper of 4,000–5,000 words (accompanied by a performance, exhibit, or product where applicable) and a presentation with an oral defense.

Chicana/o/x and Latina/o/x (ChiLat) history is US History. This course will engage students in a year-long exploration of the experiences, contributions and struggles of the ChiLat peoples in the United States of America. Throughout this academically rigorous and culturally relevant and responsive learning journey, students will be guided to deepen their understanding of who they are, from where they come, how they have come to this place in time, and to have a greater sense of where it is they are going (their purpose). Of paramount importance, the goal of this course is to facilitate students to move toward a greater knowledge and love of self (of the nuances, complexity and beauty of their lives, of their challenges and struggles) and their unique, yet connected, story.

This historical investigation begins with the critical connection to and examination of the ancient meso-American past (including the Inca) and its significant relationship to contemporary American society. From there, students will study historic moments and movements spanning European and Spanish colonialism, its impact on indigenous peoples (1st Nations) of the hemisphere and the creation of the mestizo (indigenous, African and European) identity and experience of the ChiLat peoples. The course will engage students through both the use of “big ideas” and inquiry. Critical concepts will anchor the examination of historical events. Themes include Origin & Identity; Dispossession, Displacement & Defiance; Self-Determination & Organizing; Solidarity, Resistance & Liberation.

Students will examine foundational texts in Ethnic Studies and ChiLat Studies as a lense from which to explore the history of the United States. Students will investigate the intersection between ethnicity, culture, nationality, race, and gender and how these aspects of ourselves shape and are shaped by dominant systems. Students will also learn about how the social construct of identity, particularly race, is created, contested, and altered by historic and economic processes. There will be special emphasis on institutions, trends, movements, problems and socio-political advancements relevant to the ChiLat community in the United States, and its relationship to the development of the United States as a whole.

Each student will be supported to:

learn and make connections between themselves and historical events in the United States, and the relationship of this history, to the present;
critically study the past so we as a society can make better decisions in the present, impacting the future;
center the lived experience and histories of ChiLat peoples in the study of US history;
investigate the relationship between the histories of Latin America and the Caribbean, and the multitude of 1st Nations within the present day United States;
wield their learnings as emerging citizens to engage in the problem solving of our communities and nation’s most pressing issues.

The course insists on students taking artistic ownership of their writing, along with the willingness to share material that is reflective of a yearlong exploration of "voice," and the writing tools needed to achieve it, in the most unique and authentic manner possible.

Themes of power dynamics associated with race and racism--as well as with other aspects of identity such as nationality, class, religion, and gender--will be addressed through a diverse curriculum.

This course will prepare students for honors-level coursework in high school to meet college entrance requirements. The honors focus is designed to provide students with more rigorous content that covers the same standards as the college preparatory course. Students will explore the content with degrees of depth and complexity that will provide broad preparation for college-level coursework, including Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, SBCC Dual Enrollment and post-secondary coursework. Honors will not necessarily require a greater volume of work to achieve success, but will provide an experience that is more challenging than the college preparatory equivalent. *This course fulfills the SBUSD graduation requirement for Ethnic Studies.

Inglés 9 es un curso obligatorio para todos los alumnos de primer año. Inglés 9 con énfasis en Estudios Étnicos y de Justicia Social supone un recorrido integral por los géneros de poesía, drama, historias cortas, la novela y la no-ficción con análisis frecuentes y rigurosos y respuestas por escrito, que está alineado con los Estándares Estatales Centrales Comunes de California de Lengua y Literatura en inglés y Lectoescritura. Se desarrollarán las destrezas de escucha y de habla a través de presentaciones orales, unidades multimedia y actividades en grupo. Con el énfasis en los Estudios Étnicos y de Justicia Social, los alumnos aprenderán acerca de la experiencia política, social, económica y cultural de grupos marginalizados en los Estados Unidos y más allá. Se tratarán, a través de un programa de estudios diverso, temas sobre las dinámicas del poder relacionados con la raza y el racismo, así como con otros aspectos de la identidad como la nacionalidad, la clase, religión y el género. Este curso preparará a los alumnos para que tomen cursos de nivel de curso de honores en la preparatoria, para que cumplan con los requisitos de acceso a la universidad. El enfoque de que sea un curso de honores está pensado para que los alumnos accedan a contenidos más exigentes que cubran los mismos estándares que los cursos preparatorios para la universidad. Los alumnos explorarán los contenidos con un nivel de profundidad y complejidad que les aportará una amplia preparación para las clases de nivel universitario, incluidas las de Colocación Avanzada, Bachillerato Internacional, las clases de Doble matriculación de SBCC y las de post-secundaria. Las clases de honores no implicarán necesariamente un mayor volumen de trabajo para alcanzar el éxito, pero proporcionarán una experiencia más desafiante que sus equivalentes de preparación a la universidad. *Este curso cumple con el requisito de graduación del SBUSD en lo que respecta a los Estudios Étnicos.

The fundamental purpose of Integrated Mathematics I is to formalize and extend the mathematics that students learned in the middle grades. The critical areas, organized into units, deepen and extend understanding of linear relationships, in part by contrasting them with exponential phenomena, and in part by applying linear models to data that exhibit a linear trend. Integrated Mathematics I uses properties and theorems involving congruent figures to deepen and extend understanding of geometric knowledge from prior grades. The final unit in the course ties together the algebraic and geometric ideas studied. The Mathematical Practice Standards apply throughout each course and, together with the content standards, prescribe that students experience mathematics as a coherent, useful, and logical subject that makes use of their ability to make sense of problem situations.

In grades 9 and 10, or in grades 10 and 11, there is an option (three courses in two years) option for students who demonstrate the ability to handle the acceleration required to complete Integrated Math II, Integrated Math III and Pre Calculus in two school years. Compaction focuses on the same Common Core State Standards content standards of the respective grade level in a faster pace. This is recommended for students who prefer acceleration over depth, complexity, and novelty. Students must possess above average mathematical computational skills with a strong conceptual understanding of grade level mathematics.

The focus of Integrated Mathematics 2 is on quadratic expressions, equations, and functions; comparing their characteristics and behavior to those of linear and exponential relationships from Integrated Math 1. The need for extending the set of rational numbers arises and real and complex numbers are introduced so that all quadratic equations can be solved. The link between probability and data is explored through conditional probability and counting methods, including their use in making and evaluating decisions. The study of similarity leads to an understanding of right triangle trigonometry and connects to quadratics through Pythagorean relationships. Circles, with their quadratic algebraic representations, round out the course. The Mathematical Practice Standards apply throughout each course and, together with the content standards, prescribe that students experience mathematics as a coherent, useful, and logical subject that makes use of their ability to make sense of problem situations.

It is in Integrated Math 3 that students pull together and apply the accumulation of learning that they have from their previous courses, with content grouped into four critical areas, organized into units. They apply methods from probability and statistics to draw inferences and conclusions from data. Students expand their repertoire of functions to include polynomial, rational, and radical functions. They expand their study of right triangle trigonometry to include general triangles. And, finally, students bring together all of their experience with functions and geometry to create models and solve contextual problems.

En los grados 9 y 10, o en los grados 10 y 11, hay una opción de «compactación» (tres cursos en dos años) para alumnos que demuestran la habilidad de manejar la aceleración requerida para completar Matemáticas Integrada II, Matemáticas Integrada III y Precálculo en dos años escolares. La compactación se enfoca en los mismos estándares de contenido de los Estándares Estatales Comunes del nivel respectivo del grado a un ritmo más acelerado. Este curso se recomienda para alumnos que prefieren rapidez sobre profundidad, complejidad y novedad. Los alumnos deben poseer habilidades computacionales de matemáticas por encima de la media con un fuerte conocimiento conceptual de matemáticas a nivel de su grado.

El enfoque de Matemáticas Integrada II es en expresiones cuadráticas, ecuaciones y funciones; comparar sus características y comportamiento con aquellos de las relaciones lineales y exponenciales de Matemáticas Integrada I. La necesidad de extender el conjunto de números racionales surge y los números reales y complejos se introducen para que todas las ecuaciones cuadráticas puedan ser resueltas. El nexo entre probabilidad y datos se explora a través de la probabilidad condicional y métodos de cálculo, incluyendo su uso al hacer y evaluar decisiones. El estudio de la similitud conduce a la ecuación cuadrática de la trigonometría del triángulo rectángulo y conecta a la ecuación cuadrática a través de relaciones Pitagóreas. Los círculos, con sus representaciones algebraicas cuadráticas completan el curso. Los Estándares de la Práctica Matemática se aplican en cada curso y, junto con los estándares del contenido, prescriben que los alumnos experimentan las matemáticas como una materia coherente, útil y lógica que utiliza su habilidad de hacer sentido de situaciones de problemas.

Precalculus combines concepts of trigonometry, geometry, and algebra that are needed to prepare students for the study of calculus. The course strengthens students’ conceptual understanding of problems and mathematical reasoning in solving problems. Facility with these topics is especially important for students who intend to study calculus, physics, other sciences, and engineering in college. The main topics in the Precalculus course are complex numbers, rational functions, trigonometric functions and their inverses, inverse functions, vectors and matrices, and parametric and polar curves. Because the standards that comprise this course are mostly (+) standards, students who enroll in Precalculus should have met the college- and career-ready standards of the previous courses (Math I, Math II, and Math III). It is recommended that students complete Precalculus before taking an Advanced Placement calculus course.

In Math 8, instructional time should focus on three critical areas: (1) formulating and reasoning about expressions and equations, including modeling an association in bivariate data with a linear equation, and solving linear equations and systems of linear equations; (2) grasping the concept of a function and using functions to describe quantitative relationships; (3) analyzing two- and three-dimensional space and figures using distance, angle, similarity, and congruence, and understanding and applying the Pythagorean Theorem.

Theory of Knowledge (TOK) is designed to challenge students to think about what they think and how they come to think it. TOK is based on the spirit of inquiry, and it is a course in which no answer comes without another question attached. Its purpose is to deconstruct and reconstruct students' notions about knowledge. Students will be expected to evaluate and justify the way they claim to know. They will develop an awareness of their potential and their limits as knowers. TOK aims to equip students with an appreciation for active, responsible thinking in an increasingly interconnected world. They are expected to understand both the value and the complexity of the nature of knowledge.
