This is an introduction to the physical sciences and scientific methodology. The objectives are to impart a basic knowledge of the physical properties and chemistry of matter. Skills are developed in the classroom and reinforced through homework reading and interesting labs that relate to everyday life.

In the second semester, students will explore how Earth’s surface changes through plate tectonics and geological processes. Students will also take a step back in time to see how the Earth and life developed through its timescale. By the end of the course, students will be able to explain the different systems on Earth, how … Read more
How much do we really know about our home, planet Earth? The Earth Science course will explore the dynamic systems of Earth and Space to help students understand how Earth’s systems have developed through time, how they are interrelated, and how humans impact them. In the first semester, students will investigate the universe and its … Read more

Chemistry B builds on the concepts and skills learned in the first semester as students continue to explore the properties of matter and the changes it undergoes. Chemistry B covers topics in chemical reactions and stoichiometry, gases, thermochemistry, kinetics, equilibrium, acids and bases, organic chemistry, and biochemistry. An algebra background is recommended because of the … Read more
