Looking at the curriculum, this is all things that I covered in middle school. I think the more advanced parts may have been touched on in my first year of high school. What are students in the US studying where middle school math is a graduation requirement?
High schools in many states are gearing towards various individuated pathways that cater to college and career readiness, rather than one-size-fits-all set of universal requirements. If your chosen pathway includes advanced maths, then they are required. Otherwise, not.
Hello, American here.
The answer is nothing. High school students are studying nothing.
Hope that helps!
