Course title
HONORS SCIENCE ACADEMY 1 (COURSE CODE: 311201)Pre-requisite
Successful completion of Science 8 and a desire to take upper level science courses as a junior and the understanding that more work is required.Course description
PRHS is excited to offer the same content of the Science Academy 1 and half of Science Academy 2 into one accelerated year. This is the first year of a 2-year program that will encourage students to actively engage in science. The accelerated pathway doesn?t eliminate the requirement of a 3rd year of science; it just gives a student more options of what to take in their junior year. Following new federal and state guidelines; this rigorous science course explores topics in all four disciplines of science (Earth; Biology; Chemistry; and Physics). As an accelerated course; more will be asked of the student in terms of reading and independent assignments. The goal of this course is to allow students to cover the concepts of the science academy quickly and get them in more upper level science electives in their Junior year; perfect for students thinking about an education and career in STEM fields.
