Integrated Science is a comprehensive course that studies the interconnections between astronomy, atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and geosphere. Sustainability will also be discussed. Throughout our study we will focus on how energy is used and transferred, with an emphasis on hands-on applications of the scientific method.

CHEMISTRY Year 1 Credit

Prerequisite: completion of or concurrent registration in Algebra II

Chemistry examines the properties, structure, and composition of the types of materials, including the changes in composition which these materials undergo. Presentations are designed to enhance understanding of the makeup and changes within creation; to see why they behave as they do; and to develop problem solving skills. Lab work provides inquiry experiences with the concepts and materials being studied.

AP CHEMISTRY Year 1½ Credit
