Science

The Out-of-Door Academy Science Department’s core courses are taught in alignment with the Next Generation Science Standards. Each of the core courses is designed to emphasize depth of content rather than breadth of content. As well, each content item is covered in conjunction with the seven science practices outlined by the College Board. This improves our student’s ability to not only know science, but to think like a scientist, and apply this thinking to their everyday challenges.
