Chemistry is the study of the properties and behavior of matter.

• Physical and chemical properties of matter

• how different forms of matter change and interact

• the energy associated with chemical and physical changes.

We expect our students to gain a "Scientific World View".  Some tenets of the scientific world view include:

• The world is understandable

• scientific ideas are subject to change

• scientific knowledge is durable

• science cannot provide complete answers to all problems.
