Science Dept 2020

OVERVIEW

 

Students at Lindero  pursue a three-year study in science which includes earth science, biological science, and physical science.  Our science program is very hands-on and provides students with a strong background in lab techniques and problem solving skills.
 
Oliver Wendell Holmes has said that the human mind, once stretched by a new idea, never returns to its original dimensions.  Our goal is to engage, challenge, and excite students about science by presenting new ideas that will help to foster a life-long love of science and expand the dimensions of their thinking.
