Syllabus for Principles of Biomedical Science

Classroom teacher: Utasha Watkins-Mattison room F203

Email: un.watkins-mattison@cms.k12.nc.us

I am looking forward to an exciting semester in Principles of Biomedical Science (PBS). We have planned many exciting lessons for you to enjoy and learn from. This is an honors class that is delivered through an online platform via Canvas. It is fast paced and requires a lot of work in and out of class. Homework and studying are required nightly. Make sure you take all of your notes in class and participate in all activities(labs, demos, videos, breakout groups, projects,and warm ups). Choose one other person in class to pair up with to help you study nightly. Canvas and/or Remind will be used to remind you of upcoming assignments, quizzes, tests, and projects. All grades, absences, and tardies can be checked daily by parents and students on PowerSchool(ask your child for their PowerSchool login). Grades are based on CMS protocol.

Rules for Class
