Science
The Science Department believes that a certain degree of familiarity with Science is necessary for today’s world. The sequence of courses may reflect considerable latitude depending on one’s interests and needs. Courses are available for all levels of competence, ranging from honors sections for more advanced students to skills classes for remedial students.
The department offers sequential courses that prepare students for college in the biological and physical sciences. Most college admissions criteria include a minimum of at least three credits in laboratory science. Students who are planning careers in science, health, or technical areas should have a three—or four-year foundation in science. The science department staff and the counselor will assist the student in course selection each year.
