AP Environmental Science

AP Environmental Science provides students with the scientific principles, concepts, and methodologies required to understand the interrelationships of the natural world, to identify and analyze environmental problems both natural and human-made, to evaluate the relative risks associated with these problems, and to examine alternative solutions for resolving or preventing them. The class will build on knowledge gained in biology and chemistry, and is recommended for students who have an interest in pursuing science or environmental topics in college. The textbook, materials, and pace will be at a college freshman level. Organization and time management are necessary. Students are expected to take the Advanced Placement examination.
