Why does PLTW have a math requirement for students enrolled in its program?
Students, who take the highest level of college preparatory mathematics they are capable of successfully handling during all four years of high school, will: develop a solid background in math skills and concepts; be prepared to take each level of the PLTW program; be prepared to succeed in the entry level mathematics course in college; avoid regression between high school and college by taking math each year of high school; and will have a solid background for engineering/technology.
