| − | This course covers a full-year honors curriculum and prepares students for success in Honors Algebra I, Cryptography, and other CTY Online Programs courses. The course begins with a review of grade 6 concepts. Students can proceed quickly through familiar material and take additional time on more difficult concepts. Students are also invited to participate and ask questions in an open Help Room guided by instructors.

| − | The course has video lessons (provided by Thinkwell), sample exercises, practice exercises, online tests, two offline paper-based exams, an instructor, and access to a virtual classroom to meet with the instructor. Each student will be assigned an experienced math instructor who will:
| |
| − | | |
| − | Provide one-on-one support.
| |
| − | Solve student’s doubts via e-mail or by appointment on the instructor’s virtual classroom.
| |
| − | Keep constant communication with the student, at least once per week.
| |
| − | Provide feedback on the student’s performance in the course.
| |
| − | Students will also have access to a pause service that can be used to pause the course for 7 days or longer. This service can only be requested by a parent/guardian and is very useful to use during busy school weeks, vacation, or other events that will not allow the student to access and advance in the course.
