One of the following courses:

• Chemistry

An experimental science that studies the nature of matter including its forms, properties, and interactions.  The nomenclature, structure, composition and reactions of chemical compounds are studied.  Factors that affect reactions, acids and bases, the states of matter, and solutions are also studied.  Lab time is included. Comments: Must be in Adv. Algebra to take this course

• Chemistry Foundations

Similar to General Chemistry, but with more of an emphasis on concepts.  You will study the nature of matter including its forms, properties, and interactions.  The nomenclature, structure, composition and reactions of chemical compounds are studied.  Factors that affect reactions, acids and bases, the states of matter, and solutions are also studied.  Lab time is included.

World Geography

This course will allow students to develop a working knowledge of basic geographic concepts and skills so that they are able to demonstrate a basic knowledge of locations of places in the world as well as analyzing and evaluating the countries and civilizations of the world.
