To help students prepare for the CAPT, the Joel Barlow High School Mathematics Department is offering math review sessions.

The Connecticut Academic Performance Task (CAPT) is a comprehensive, state-required assessment administered to all public high school sophomores in the spring. Students must pass all sections of the CAPT to be eligible to earn a diploma.

The sessions will meet from 3 to 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. The dates and topics are as follows:

Thursday Feb. 8 — Algebra & Functions; Tuesday, Feb. 14 — Geometry & Measurement; Tuesday, Feb. 16 — Geometry & Measurement; Tuesday, Feb. 28 — Numerical & Proportional Reasoning; and Thursday, March 1 — Working With Data: Statistics & Probability

Sessions are open to all students interested in extra review in preparation for the CAPT.

The size of the sessions is limited to maintain a low student to teacher ratio. Registering for the sessions is encouraged. Students may register for individual sessions or for the entire review course. There is no cost for students to attend.
