PEACE Academy

In this year-long course students will start small and end by looking at the entire biosphere. Topics covered include: atoms, molecules, DNA, cells, human anatomy, and ecosystems. Students will perform experiments along in each chapter to reinforce concepts being studied. Students will be expected to read the text daily, complete a lab report weekly, and take online tests every other week. Most students should expect to spend 30-45 minutes per day on this class.

The course is recommended for students in 7th-8th grades. Advanced 6th graders may be ready for this class. If you have questions about your child's readiness please reach out to the teacher.
