Environmental Science

Grade 11 Mixed

Welcome to grade 11 Environmental Science at RHSA!

Check this site if you are absent, have lost a worksheet or forgot the homework. You are welcome to print the lecture notes, but if you come to class without the printed lecture notes then you will be asked to copy the note along with others in the class. The lecture notes alone are a poor substitute for attendance and participation in the class. 

Please note the Science Department Evaluation Policy (listed below), which contains information about the Science Departments' policies on assessments and missing work and tests.
