Mission 

All students will possess an understanding of scientific concepts and processes required for personal decision-making, participation in civic life, and preparation for careers in STEM fields (for those that chose).

Vision

Prepare students to become scientifically literate individuals who can effectively: 

• Apply scientific thinking, skills, and understanding to real-world phenomena and problems; 
• Engage in systems thinking and modeling to explain phenomena and to give a context for the ideas to be learned; 
• Conduct investigations, solve problems, and engage in discussions; 
• Discuss open-ended questions that focus on the strength of the evidence used to generate claims; 
• Read and evaluate multiple sources, including science-related magazine and journal articles and web-based resources to gain knowledge about current and past science problems and solutions and develop well-reasoned claims; and 
• Communicate ideas through journal articles, reports, posters, and media presentations that explain and argue.
