Academic Program: Science
The
most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of
all true art and science. --Albert Einstein
Inquiry and
investigative skills and their development are incorporated into all LV science
classes. Hands-on experiment and
activities provide opportunities for young people to learn to think like a
scientist and develop an appreciation for the amazing world that has been
created for us by a loving God.
Our
science curriculum choices affirm a 6-day creation model while teaching
students to think critically about the theory of evolution and its implications
in the modern world.
