SCIENCE
Our science program uses activity oriented, hands-on
teaching methods to cultivate an interest in science. We encourage an
open and creative approach to problem solving. We foster a bonding with
the natural world and
a desire to protect and improve our environment. As students begin to
accumulate
a knowledge base of facts, concepts, and process skills, it is
important
to remember that the world of adult scientists is full of false starts,
incomplete
information, mistakes and trial and error discoveries. A primary
objective
of our science program is to encourage scientific attitudes including;
intense
curiosity, skepticism, objectivity, open mindedness, and determination.
