Students in grades 5 through 8 use StemScopes, an innovative curriculum aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). StemScopes emphasizes inquiry-based learning and hands-on activities that encourage students to explore scientific concepts deeply and develop critical thinking skills. Through interactive lessons, experiments, and real-world applications, students build a strong foundation in STEM subjects.
In 8th grade, students take Physical Science, a course that offers high school credit. This class continues to build on the skills and knowledge gained in earlier grades, preparing students for future science coursework while giving them a head start on their high school science requirements.
