SCIENCE REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE 3 UNITS OF SCIENCE – THESE CREDITS BEGIN NOW. PERSONAL GOALS THIS YEAR:  EARN ALL THE CREDITS FOR THE COURSES YOU ARE ENROLLED IN – THIS WILL ENSURE YOU HAVE GREATER OPTIONS ONCE YOU GO TO BSHS OR BSSHS.  PREPARE FOR YOUR POST-HIGH SCHOOL FUTURE…  CHALLENGE YOURSELF ACADEMICALLY.

OPTIONS FOR SCIENCE COURSES YOUR SOPHOMORE YEAR… ChemistryPre-AP ChemistryPhysicsAP Biology – follows PreAP Biology The principles of Chemistry are studied in a logical way with laboratory work helping to reveal these principles. The content of the course includes the following: atomic structure, solids, liquids, gases, the periodic table, chemical reactions, molecular structure, equilibrium, and acids and bases. This course is for students who plan to take AP Chemistry for their second year of high school chemistry. Topics include chemical nomenclature, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, gasses, solutions, bonding, thermo chemistry, equilibrium, kinetics, and electrochemistry. One honor point may be earned for the successful completion of this full-year course at the end of the year. This course presents the topics of physics and how they will explain the nature of the world that we live in. The main areas of study include motion, energy, electricity and magnetism, sound, light, and optics. Students who take AP Biology will use advanced inquiry and reasoning skills. Students will be expected to devote time outside of the normal class period to work on this course. An honor point may be earned for each semester passed of this course. College credit can be earned by achieving an acceptable score on the AP exam. All students are expected to take the AP exam and pay the examination fee.
