What courses would "higher maths" include?

Updating school handbook and I'm not a math person. Thanks!

The term is relative, Janie. In the high school sense, it is often used to describe courses beyond Algebra II/Trig. This would include Precalculus, Intro to Statistics, Calculus, Discrete Math.

In college, "higher maths" might be those undergrad courses beyond Differential Equations. But you are talking high school, aren't you?
