Chemistry

 Welcome to Chemistry!

Chemistry is a College-Prep, laboratory-based, science class designed for 10th- 11th grade high school students.  It is a rigorous course that will cover concepts and theories relating to the scientific field of Chemistry.  In this NGSS aligned chemistry course, students will explore physical science concepts that build comprehension around matter, its properties, and its interactions with other matter and energy. The units within this scope and sequence are presented thematically to provide a context for student learning. Students will explore concepts in chemistry and apply their understanding of these concepts in the context of Earth and Space Science. The integration of relevant Earth and Space Science concepts such as stars and climate change are designed to deepen student understanding of chemistry’s role in Earth’s systems and society.
