​Modern American History 

This survey course will cover American history from the Progressive Era to Modern Times (1900 - 2013). Students will utilize a narrative eText that includes links to videos, interactive maps, images, and primary source documents.

Inquiry Biology: Ecology
This life science course will be focusing on how organisms function and how they interact with their physical surroundings. Topics covered include: populations, ecosystems, the cell, functions of various life forms, genetic variation, diversity and adaptation in the biosphere, and biomes around the world.  Inquiry-based learning guides the student to divine a procedure to collect data to answer a question.  How should we classify an unknown organism? What is the structure of DNA and why? What factors alter the predator-prey ratio? Class time will consist of activities to illuminate the concepts and collect data as well as discussion and debate of students’ scientific findings.
