The middle school science program is designed to increase student’s enthusiasm towards science and how it applies to the real world.

This course helps students develop scientific literacy so they better understand the world we live in by improving upon things such as familiarity with the natural world, understanding disciplinary core ideas and crosscutting concepts of science, students’ ability to reason scientifically, and apply scientific knowledge and engineering practices for personal and social purposes.
In this course, FOSS Next Generation is used. FOSS is more than a typical science program. This program has several key features; students learn science by doing science integrated reading, writing, and mathematics, interactive technology, outdoor activities, and program support.
