• Focus on math and science for all students in all grades.
Math and science need to be more coordinated and integrated for maximizing instructional time and producing positive results. Through our math and science curriculum, we need to develop the ability to analyze, synthesize and solve problems from which there are no routine solutions.

Scientific Research: Course Number: 3295
This class will focus on original research to be done in the course of the semester by both the class as a whole and the individual student. We will focus on correct ways to do research as well as ethical ramifications of research practices. There will be a concluding presentation that will be made by each student about the research that they completed in front of peers and faculty. Students will also be encouraged to take part in science research competitions for scholarship money.
