Middle School science begins with a foundation in the scientific method and the processes used in scientific investigation. Weekly labs teach and reinforce skills such as experiment design, hypothesis testing, data analysis, and classification.

In grade six, students engage in hands-on learning — working with lab partners, engineering models, presenting findings, generating data tables, and developing strategies for rigorous study. 

Grade seven focuses on life sciences, beginning with cells and their functions. Students build models, design experiments, and collaborate to explore the biosphere. 

In grade eight, students study basic principles of physics and chemistry with an emphasis on collaborative labs, independent experimental design, and critical thinking. The goal is to instill a curiosity for science that will evolve over time.
