Science
overview
The Northern Science department aspires to help students become skilled critical thinkers, problem solvers, innovators, and team players. We offer a variety of courses that support the creativity and curiosity of students. We develop our courses with an inquiry framework that continually has students asking questions and designing experiments to answer them. At the conclusion of their high school career, our students will be capable of applying their scientific knowledge to relevant issues and driving the change they want to see in the world.
