Students at Century High School (CHS), a Catholic all-boys high school on Long Island, New York, who started ninth grade with Algebra 1 instead of Geometry demonstrated less obvious career interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and lower mathematics achievement, as typically evidenced by Iowa Tests of Educational Development (ITED) and SAT scores. To address the needs of students who did not take higher-level mathematics during their high-school program and thus started behind their college classmates in mathematics courses, CHS changed its mathematics course offerings to provide students with more advanced mathematics course opportunities. This research study explored (1) high-school students' STEM career interest, based on interviews, the STEM Semantics Survey, and a modified Career Interest Questionnaire, and (2) high school students' mathematics achievement, based on SAT mathematics scores. Students with the revised mathematics course sequence beginning high school in Geometry were compared to students in the previous sequence, many of whom began high school in Algebra 1. According to the surveys and interviews conducted, the researcher found that students in the most advanced mathematics classes taking the new course sequence had greater STEM career interest, compared to the students in the previous course sequence. In addition, according to the SAT mathematics data, the researcher found that students in less advanced mathematics classes taking the new course sequence had greater mathematics achievement, compared to the students in the previous course sequence.
