Penn Foster High School Concentration on Information Technology?
I enrolled in this program a little while ago and couldn't help but notice in my math classes I get no introduction to Algebra or Geometry. Is this normal? And seeing as I enrolled in something that provides a extra 5 classes than a 'normal' diploma does that mean that I was denied my choosing 5 extra electives? Thanks!

The High School Diplomas with a "concentration" technically do not have electives. The typical 5 electives a student would "choose" in the standard High School Diploma are predetermined by the concentration itself. So the five "electives" you refer to are superseded by the concentration courses.
Here is the description of your 14th course called General Math 2. Notice that there are algebraic concepts and an introduction to geometry.
"General Math 2 (1 credit)
Review of the four basic mathematical operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division; order of operations; factors; multiples, powers; roots; equations; inequalities; introduction to geometry."

Best wishes moving forward in your studies and your future.
