Department Philosophy

Every student should be provided the opportunity to acquire a basic understanding of the principles of science and technology necessary to participate as a responsible citizen in a democratic society. Acquisition of these principles should be limited only by a student's innate ability and desire to learn. Opportunities for in-depth study of science, geared toward post-secondary or career education, should be available to students with these interests. The department believes that science is both a body of knowledge and a process for obtaining that knowledge; students therefore need ample opportunities to engage in the process of science.
