Online Physical Earth Science (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
SC4V06S1 and SC4V06S2 Online Physical Earth Science (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
PREREQUISITE: NoneGRADE: 9LENGTH: Full Year, S1 and S2MEETS REQUIREMENT FOR: Physical Earth ScienceOUT OF CLASS WORK: OftenFEE: None
This year-long course focuses on Earth Science standards. Students will engage in science practices as they learn about mechanisms and phenomena on Earth and in space. Space science topics include solar systems, laws of gravitation and planetary motion, the Big Bang Theory, and the composition of stars. The course explores Earth's atmosphere and water, including air compositions and circulations, the carbon cycle, the greenhouse effect, oceans, and wetlands. Students will also learn about geology topics, including rock formation, volcanic and tectonic activity, and wave propagation (earthquakes).

Online Chemistry (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
SC4V12S1 and SC4V12S2Online Chemistry (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
PREREQUISITE: Physics or Enriched Physics *GRADE: 10LENGTH: Full Year, S1 and S2MEETS REQUIREMENT FOR: ChemistryOUT OF CLASS WORK: PeriodicallyFEE: None This year-long course is designed to meet the needs of those students who are college-bound, and whose interests generally lie in the social sciences and humanities. It is less mathematically oriented than Enriched Chemistry. Topics include the scientific method, properties of matter, atomic structure, periodic table, energy relationships to chemical reactions, formula writing and equations, mole concepts, acid-base chemistry and chemical bonding. Laboratory work is extensive and includes qualitative and quantitative analyses. Students will be expected to solve basic algebra problems. Credit achieved for this course meets state graduation requirements.
Online Biology (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
SC4V11S1 and SC4V11S2Online Biology (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
PREREQUISITE: Physics or Chemistry *GRADE: 10, 11LENGTH: Full Year, S1 and S2MEETS REQUIREMENT FOR: BiologyOUT OF CLASS WORK: PeriodicallyFEE: None This year-long course focuses on biological concepts, theories, and principles through investigation and analysis of cells, organisms and ecosystems. Course topics will include information about biodiversity, biological evolution, cells, ecology, genetics and living systems. Students will conduct experiments and investigations that may be instructor-designed or independently created by the students. Credit achieved for this course meets state Biology graduation requirements.
Online Forensics (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
SC4V27S1 or SC4V27S2Online Forensics (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
PREREQUISITE: Chemistry or Enriched Chemistry *GRADE: 11, 12LENGTH: 1 Semester, S1 or S2MEETS REQUIREMENT FOR: Science ElectiveOUT OF CLASS WORK: PeriodicallyFEE: None This semester-long elective course is designed to educate students about Forensic Science and its applications to real crime. Students will participate in several units of study, such as Crime Scene Processing, Code Breaking, Handwriting Analysis, Psychological Profiling, Fingerprints, DNA, Shoe Prints, Ballistics, Death, Anthropology, Toxicology, Terrorism, Arson, Hair, Fiber, and Accident Investigation. The semester will conclude with a lab-based final that utilizes many of the topics covered during the semester.

PREREQUISITE: Physical Earth ScienceGRADE: 9-12LENGTH: Full Year, S1 and S2MEETS REQUIREMENT FOR: 9-12 PhysicsOUT OF CLASS WORK: DailyFEE: None
This year-long course emphasizes a conceptual understanding of the fundamental principles governing the universe. This course will cover motion, forces, waves, sound and light, electricity, magnetism and nuclear physics. Problem solving and laboratory skills will also be emphasized.
Online Organic Chemistry (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
SC4V25S1 or SC4V25S2Online Organic Chemistry (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
PREREQUISITE: Chemistry or Enriched Chemistry *GRADE: 11, 12LENGTH: 1 Semester, S1 or S2MEETS REQUIREMENT FOR: Science ElectiveOUT OF CLASS WORK: PeriodicallyFEE: None
This semester-long elective science course will introduce students to the study of carbon-based compounds, which are found in all living things and can also be prepared synthetically. The course will focus on core concepts such as bonding, nomenclature, alkanes, alkenes and aromatics while studying topics such as fats and soaps, and fabrics and dyes. This course is designed to provide a strong foundation in organic chemistry for students interested in the fields of science, medicine, nursing, nutrition or veterinary medicine.
Online Science or Myth? (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
SC4V07S1 and SC4V07S2Online Science or Myth? (Pending Sufficient Enrollment)
PREREQUISITE: NoneGRADE: 9, 10, 11, 12LENGTH: One semester, S1 or S2MEETS REQUIREMENT FOR: Science ElectiveOUT OF CLASS WORK: DailyFEE: None
Science or Myth is a semester-long course that looks at how we distinguish fact from Myth in our current reality of Deepfakes and fake news. Science or Myth looks at how Science was applied and reported, reflecting on current and historical events relating to their cultural and historical impact. Students will problem-solve and try to prove or bust conspiracy theories making us informed citizens and able to apply scientific logic in our future endeavors.
