Course Title: Biology I Description: This course is an in-depth study of the science of life. It includes exploration of the nature of life, its continuity and changes, microbiology, plants, invertebrates, and invertebrates. Course Title: Biology I (Pre AP)
Description: Pre Advanced Placement Biology is a college-prep course, designed for the highly motivated student to introduce information about the living world. Students will acquire and in depth knowledge of biochemistry, cells homeostasis, cellular energy, genetics, taxonomy, viruses, bacteria, protists, fungi, botany, and zoology. Course Title:
Biology II Description: Enhances level-one skills through science process skills, further develops and extends Biology I concepts. Course Title: Advanced Placement
Biology Description: AP Biology is a college level biology course equivalent to the first two college biology courses. It emphasizes an in depth understanding of biochemistry, cells, homeostasis, cellular energy, genetics, taxonomy, and all prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Course Title: Physical Science Description: Physical Science is the study of matter and energy. Students in this course will be introduced to basic principles of chemistry and physics. The course will cover a variety of topics, including motion and forces, states of matter, atomic structure, the periodic table, electricity, and magnetism. Course Title: Chemistry Description: Discovery of the nature of chemistry through the experiencing of activities of a chemist. Skills and methods essential to this inquiry are investigated in depth with a mathematical and theoretical approach. Includes the structure of matter and the periodic table. Course Title: Human
Anatomy/Physiology Description: Anatomy and Physiology is a college-prep course that will contrast anatomy and physiology and discuss the levels of organizational complexity in the human body. This course also emphasizes the needs and functional processes common to all living organisms. Students will acquire and in-depth knowledge of complementarity of structure and function, hierarchy of structural organization, and homeostasis as they relate to the human body.
