Science at Flagstaff Academy
The heart of Flagstaff's science program is hands-on exploration. We have three on-site science labs, one for elementary grades and two for middle school grades, and two full-time dedicated science instructors, one for the elementary grades and one for middle school. Students in grades K-8 truly "experience" science by using lab-based programming in conjunction with the Core Knowledge science curriculum.
The science program at Flagstaff Academy in the secondary grades can hardly be called "middle school science". We cover numerous difficult topics such as redox-reactions in chemistry, advanced physics concepts (students compete in a National Rocketry Challenge for $60,000 in scholarships), and college-level genetics and cell energetics. In short, Flagstaff prepares students to take advanced science courses in high school, while sparking an interest in the sciences so they may continue them into their college careers.
