If you would like to compare online prices of any of our textbooks, proceed to Bigwords.com or Bookfinder4u.com and type in the ISBN's found below.  You may also desire to check Follett.  The search engines above omits this site with great prices.  Use the ISBN numbers below to search by.

However, often the purchasing directly from the publisher results in the lowest price.  For example, for the calculus book, go here.

 


Special notes:

(1) Algebra II and Algebra II/Trig use the same book.

(2) All students are required to purchase their own calculator for use in their mathematics courses at University High School. In all levels of geometry, Algebra A, and Algebra I, a scientific calculator (i.e. any model TI 30 or TI 36) is required. In Algebra II, Algebra II / Trig, College Algebra, Pre-Calc, and Adv. Topics, a TI-83 + or TI 84+ graphing calculator is required. In AP Calculus, a TI 89 Titanium graphing calculator is required.
