The Science curriculum for grades 6,7 & 8 encompasses various topics in the fields of Earth, Life and Physical Science. Lab activities, demonstrations and projects are incorporated into the curriculum.
6th Grade students learn about forces and energy as well as rocks, minerals and Earth’s structures and processes.
7th Graders focus on the mysteries of the human body, ecology, alternative energy sources and living things in our environment.
8th Grade Science includes a study of human cells, DNA, life processes, genetics, human disorders and an introduction to the principles of Chemistry.
All students in grades 6,7 and 8 participate in our annual Earth Day Fair, in which the students demonstrate knowledge, understanding, creativity and a sense of stewardship for our planet by building, re-creating and designing science- based projects with materials that have been repurposed, recycled or reused. Each year our students meet and exceed the challenge in a spectacular fashion! Hands-on lab activities and technology compliment a varied curriculum.
