Courses
All courses except Prealgebra and Physical Science are offered at two difficulty levels, Standard and Honors.
Honors students will cover additional
material, have more challenging assignments, and more difficult tests.

Physical Science
This is a full year Physical Science class with lab exercises.
This course covers introductory Physics, Chemistry, and Astronomy. This is usually the last science
course taken before the three high school lab science courses (physics, chemistry, and biology), and
is typically taken in 8th or 9th grade.

Calculus
This is a first year course in college level Calculus. It will cover both differential
and integral calculus, and will cover
every topic on the "AP Calculus AB" syllabus. It is hoped that students will receive from this
class not only a basic introduction to calculus, but also an understanding of
its historical significance and an appreciation of its beauty and power.
Prerequisite: Precalculus.
