River Bluff Science Department
The goal of science education is to prepare students to be responsible citizens in an increasingly complex and dynamic world. The courses offered within the science department provide our students with the foundations to understand the inner workings of this world using scientific processes and concepts from all fields of endeavor: earth science, biology, chemistry, and physics. Our teachers create lessons which promote curiosity and build content knowledge along with incorporating the core science practices needed to develop scientifically literate citizens.
