The goal of the District One science teachers in Grades 9-12 is to prepare students to be responsible, competent citizens by providing innovative science experiences, which promote life-long learning, respect for the environment, and the ability to apply scientific processes.

We are committed to providing a science program that:

• Teaches concepts that are uniform and sequential and are built upon from grade to grade.
• Uses technology to prepare students for the future.
• Involves relevant activity-based instruction.
• Allow students to participate in planned integrated activities.
• Is coordinated district-wide.
• Is interesting, fun, and exciting so students are eager to participate in Science classes.
• Emphasizes cooperative learning strategies to enhance understanding of scientific concepts.
• Ensures all students equal access to facilities and equipment.
