This course is challenging; there is a strong focus on understanding concepts through the application of problem-solving and mathematical skills. It would be in the student’s best interest to have a good understanding of the concepts covered in Pre-Calculus 10 and Science 10. 

In this course, students will explore concepts related to the nature of matter, its structure and properties, stoichiometry, solution chemistry, and organic chemistry.

This course will be evaluated through assignments, tests, projects and exams.

This course will be built around developing an understanding of the key sources and sinks of greenhouse gases and their impact of a changing environment and climate. 

Student inquiry around the local environment of Whistler help students to appreciate and understand the personal connection and impact each of us has on our local and global ecosystems.

 We will call on local knowledge and firsthand experiences through guest speakers, case studies, field trips and field work. Students participate in stewardship roles and lead their peers in a shared sustainability effort by leading the recycling program at WSS. 

Assessments: projects, presentations, case study exam, weekly recycling contribution

This course is an academic course suitable for students who would like to pursue post-secondary science or health science. It would be in the student’s best interest to have a strong understanding of Life Science and Chemistry 11. Anatomy & Physiology requires students to have a strong foundation in certain units in Life Science 11 and Chemistry 11.

In this course, students will explore concepts related to biochemistry, molecular genetics, homeostasis I and homeostasis II.

This course will be evaluated through assignments, tests, exams and projects.

The Chemistry 12 course is a prerequisite class for numerous post-secondary programs in the science faculty. It would be advantageous for students to possess a solid understanding of Chemistry 11 and Pre-Calculus 11. Chemistry 12 also necessitates familiarity with specific topics from Pre-Calculus 12, and it is strongly recommended that students complete Pre-Calculus 12 before enrolling in Chemistry 12.

In this course, students will explore concepts related to kinetics, chemical equilibrium, solution equilibrium, acid-base equilibrium and electrochemistry.

Students are encouraged to complete Pre-Calculus 12 before starting Chemistry 12, as they will be using logarithms and natural logs in this course.

This course will be evaluated through assignments, tests, exams and projects.

Physics 12 expands on Physics 11 with much more detail and dimension; it also introduces new topics, including mechanical equilibrium, circular motion, universal gravitation, electrostatics, electromagnetism and special relatively. It would be advantageous for students to possess a solid understanding of Physics 11 and Pre-Calculus 11.

 A grade of B or higher in both Physics 11 and Pre-Calculus 11 would be beneficial to students taking this course as this course is highly mathematical.

This course will be evaluated through assignments, tests and exams.
