• Environmental Science standards integrate the study of many components of our environment, including the human impact on our planet. Students investigate the flow of energy and cycling of matter within ecosystems, and evaluate types, availability, allocation, and sustainability of energy resources. Instruction focuses on student data collection and analysis from field and laboratory experiences. Some concepts are global; in those cases, we will interpret global data sets from scientific sources. Chemistry, physics, mathematical, and technological concepts will be integrated throughout the course, along with careers related to environmental science (Georgia DOE).

     

    Please be aware: AP courses have a higher academic rigor and expectation. At the end of the year, you will be taking the AP exam and can earn posible college credit by earning a high score. However, not ALL colleges/universities accept AP credit. Some require a minimum number of AP credits to be accepted or may specifically use AP credits as a method to determine if a student is admitted to their school.

     

    You WILL be reading, writing, analysing data and reporting results.

     

    It's not easy... but it's worth it!
