Seniors
This course is an introduction to engineering offered to our senior class. The course will teach the philosophy of how to work as part of a team, beginning team projects, basic and advanced electronics, wiring and breadboarding schemes, torques and a short physics review, programming in C++ using Arduino boards coupled with Dell Laptops and advanced team projects.
The AP Biology course is designed for students who have successfully completed a course in high school biology and high school chemistry. The AP Biology course is designed to be the equivalent of a full year (two semesters) college introductory biology course usually taken by biology majors during their first year. Upon obtaining a score of 3 or above, students, as college freshmen are permitted to undertake upper-level courses in biology or to register for courses for which biology is a prerequisite. This course aims to provide students with the conceptual framework, factual knowledge, and analytical skills necessary to deal critically with the rapidly changing science of biology.
The AP Biology Examination seeks to be representative of the following topics:
- Biochemistry
- Cells
- Cell Metabolism
- Cell Reproduction and Mendelian Genetics
- Molecular Genetics
- Evolution
- Taxonomy: Monerans, Protists, and Fungi
- Animal Diversity, Structure and Physiology
- Plant Diversity, Structure and Physiology
- Ecology
AP Chemistry
This course is designed for those students who have completed 10th grade Honors Chemistry, 11th grade Honors Physics and pre-calculus. We cover all of the topics required for the AP exams. We cover all coursework by March and thereafter spend our time reviewing old AP exams under exam conditions. We have a yearly trip to the Rutgers University Molecular-Physics research labs. This course includes the requisite labs and demonstrations. Topics include:
