Along with such competitions as Geography Bee, Math Sigma, and Math Counts, the schools offer a Science Club that allows students to perform hands-on experiments in topics not addressed by the regular classroom. The Wendy's Young Poet's Festival give students the opportunity to have their poems selected for display at a local Wendy's Restaurant. Some poems are also selected for publication in a regional booklet. Sixth grade students pursue Type III's based on self-selected topics. Emphasis is placed on goal setting and the development of research skills using local libraries and resource people in the community.
Students apply and are interviewed for countywide placements.
Students develop a portfolio of data they have collected from field studies and apply learning to real world problems. These experiences can be extended into an independent study. A special math and science conference is offered to girls within one of the intermediate school districts. This day long conference provide opportunities to become involved with female role models in various areas of math and science. High School services include competitions, accelerated classes, pull-out services, and a job shadowing program.
