The science curriculum at Greater New Bedford Regional Vocational Technical High School provides students with an understanding and appreciation of chemical and biological sciences. The study of science connects with other disciplines and has an integral relationship with mathematics. Also, investigation and problem solving are central to science education.
Modern equipment enables the science department to offer laboratory experience to the students.
Students taking science at GNB Voc-Tech will be involved in investigations encompassing a range of skills and subject matter content. These two elements work together to help students understand concepts and put them into practice. The students will develop greater independence in designing and carrying out investigations, while working alone or in groups. They will learn to critique their findings using a variety of physical and conceptual models. Students will explore scientific questions in depth with the assistance of teachers and community mentors.
