The scientific method is modeled in the designing of experiments, as well as analyzing and integrating science knowledge with what the student already knows. A strong scientific attitude is nurtured. Special programs, visiting scientists, videos, models enhance the students' experiences, as do field trips to nature centers, science museums and mini-field trips in our own school yard. The fourth graders spend three days and two nights at Science Camp, immersed in environmental education. As fifth graders, they spend a week at Space Camp, in Huntsville, Alabama, learning about space and technology.
Science classes meet on a regular basis.
