Science & Technology

As curriculum is developed specifically to address updated science standards, it is important for all students to have access to engaging, inspiring learning experiences via quality curriculum delivered through effective teaching practices.

Our focus is to provide students access to updated labs, equipment and academic support so they can more deeply engage in activities that help them understand science content and engage in skills required of science.
