Data and probability
Is there a homeschool statistics course for high school?
Yes. Clareza Academy's Statistics and Data Science is a Grade 12 high school statistics course in eight units, covering describing data, relationships between variables, study design, probability, the binomial and normal distributions, sampling distributions and inference, ending with a capstone study.
Why statistics is worth taking
It is the math most adults use: reading polls, news claims, medical results and charts. For many students it is a better fit than more algebra after Algebra 2.
What the course covers
Describing Data: One Variable at a Time. Relationships Between Two Variables. Study Design: What a Result Does and Does Not License You to Claim. Probability as a Model for Uncertainty. Modeling Randomness: Binomial and Normal Distributions. Sampling Distributions: The Hinge of Inference. Inference for One and Two Groups. Extending Inference and the Capstone Study.
Where it fits
After Algebra 2, alongside or instead of Precalculus. Clareza's math runs from kindergarten counting to Precalculus and Statistics. See /homeschool-curriculum/homeschool-math-curriculum-k-12.
What this is not
- It is not AP Statistics, and Clareza has no AP or college courses.
- It is not accredited. Credit is shown as hours, not awarded.
- There is no calculus course; math ends at Precalculus and Statistics.
