Physics (Honors)

Normally open to students in the 10th grade, this introductory physics course focuses on the development of foundational knowledge and skills in classical physics. The course is tailored for students with strong mathematical fluency and an interest in pursuing further study in science (or STEM). Topics covered typically include fundamental forces in the universe, motion and its causes, and energy and momentum. Laboratory investigations focus on measurement, the analysis of measurement uncertainties, and the quantitative modeling of functional dependencies.
