Welcome to Algebra! I’m Mrs. Jenkins, a proud Keith Valley and Hatboro Horsham graduate with 12 years of teaching Mathematics. My class will focus on Algebra 1, covering topics such as linear equations, polynomials, and standardized tests like PSSA and Keystone exams. Homework will reinforce daily lessons, and resources will be available online at Classzone. Grades will be based on points from homework, classwork, quizzes, and tests. For concerns or questions, feel free to reach out via email or phone.
