The middle school science program is a continuation of our elementary science program that focuses on the three branches of science: earth & space, life, and physical. Students will build upon topics learned in elementary school and continue to learn science with a hands-on approach and focus on the engineering and design process. Below are the units of study for each grade level. The middle school STEM program uses curricula from Project Lead the Way. Students can utilize engineering skills in both of the offered STEM programs. Links to the program descriptions are provided below.
