The Science Department at Emmaus High School offers an extensive range of science courses, providing students with a well-rounded education across various disciplines. Curriculums are designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in real-world careers. Whether pursuing higher education or entering the workforce directly, the diverse offerings prepare students for a wide array of career opportunities in fields such as healthcare, engineering, research, and technology.
This class provides an introduction into the study of general biology, starting from basic scientific concepts to biochemistry, and the natural laws that govern life and all living things. The course aims to improve student understanding of living things, from the tiny and simple to the complexities of plants and animals, ending with a basic understanding of ecology and the study of population dynamics. Students will complete the Keystone Exam at the end of this course.
Specialized biology 2 class intended for students who want to pursue a career in the health or medical fields. Course includes in-depth study of anatomical terminology, histology, and various body systems (skeletal, muscular, nervous, integumentary, etc) as well as homeostatic diseases, diagnostic techniques, and treatments. Extensive microscope skills will be required to explore cells and tissues of the human body. Students will use models and preserved specimens of organs and systems to further their studies and dissection of a sheep eye occurs.
You can always email me with questions, but the best way to see what we're doing in class and if your child has assignments coming up is by getting connected on the following two programs:
This is the primary grade book. All graded or collected assignments will be listed here. You can also track attendance, behavior notes, and an unofficial transcript.
Students will have a Schoology Page dedicated to each class. Unit notes, study guides and assignments will be posted here.
Check out our Family Tech Resources Website! The purpose of this site is to provide both students and families of the East Penn School District resources on the technology they are using in the classroom. Some of the resources are created by East Penn, while others may be created by the companies themselves.
