Summer Chemistry

All Gender Course; ​Full Year Course Credit
Prerequisite - Successful completion of Algebra I;
​June 12 - August 4, 2023
This course utilizes the principles of chemistry to help explain the physical world around us. Emphasis is on developing effective problem-solving skills, gaining an understanding of fundamental chemistry concepts, and effectively communicating scientific information. Students study the basic principles of matter including measurements, atomic theory, bonding, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, acids and bases, solutions, and thermochemistry. The laboratory program challenges students to think analytically, make observations, draw logical conclusions, and communicate in writing. Technology is incorporated throughout the summer through virtual laboratories, topic presentations, and a project involving the animation of a chemical reaction.
"One of my favorite things about this course is that I was able to get great feedback on every assignment I completed. That helped me to look back on what I did, correct it if I have to, and improve next time. That feedback also helped me to ask frequent questions and it really helped me to learn.”

Summer Courses

Summer courses are for-credit opportunities for ambitious students to get a jump on the next academic year. Students participating in these courses should plan to devote 20 hours per week for eight weeks to their course. Students will receive grades and comments in these classes, which are the equivalent of year-long, high-school level courses. Because of the pacing and intensity of for-credit summer courses, there is little flexibility; students must be available and have internet access for all eight weeks of the course.
