Our science curriculum promotes hands-on learning in three broad areas: Earth and Space Science, Life Science, and Physical Science. Students will learn to inquire, test, analyze, draw conclusions, and describe their findings in both written and verbal form. Students will acquire a solid foundation for future science studies in high school and in higher education. Students will also learn about a wide array of careers in science and engineering.
