Science

Overview

Science is the process of asking questions and testing answers. For younger learners (ages 4–10), the subject centers on curiosity, observation, and sensory exploration—learning about weather patterns, plant lifecycles, habitats, and basic physical forces through play and simple experiments. Intermediate learners (ages 11–14) begin applying the formal scientific method, learning to form hypotheses, control variables, and analyze data across biology, chemistry, and physics modules. For advanced students (ages 15–18), the curriculum develops rigorous critical thinking, data analysis, and research skills, preparing them to evaluate complex environmental, technological, and medical challenges facing the world today.
