 Welcome to the Terra Nova Science Department,
 

The Terra Nova High School Science Department offers a rigorous and high quality science program that provides all students with the necessary knowledge and skills to make them well informed and productive citizens who are technologically and scientifically literate, and college and career ready. With the State’s adoption of the Next Generation Science Standards, the Science Department is collaborating with the other schools in the district in preparing to transition to NGSS. We are beginning to incorporate more Science and Engineering practices in our courses and shifting the focus of the science program from too much emphasis on content to a deeper understanding of key cross cutting concepts and how these concepts work in daily life.
