The Sudbury Science & Engineering curriculum is designed to engage and empower every student with learning opportunities that foster the investigation of real-world phenomena through critical thinking and evidence-based inquiry. We are committed to providing equitable access to high-quality science experiences that nurture curiosity, collaboration, and scientific literacy. We aim to inspire students to appreciate the wonder of the natural world and acknowledge the significance of technological and engineering advancements. Our goal is to support each learner in becoming an independent problem-solver, capable of applying science and engineering practices to understand and shape the world around them.

While fostering curiosity, critical thinking, and problem solving skills, Sudbury science educators strive to:

• Create opportunities for students to construct understanding while investigating real-wold phenomena.

• Provide learning experiences for understanding the science and engineering concepts in the Massachusetts STE Framework.

• Engage students in science and engineering practices like asking questions, interpreting data, and arguing from evidence.

• Create opportunities for students to learn from other students.

• Create and promote equitable learning environments.

• Celebrate diversity and inclusion.

• Reflect on our teaching and learning to better engage our students.

• Foster curiosity and collaboration.
