<br>Subject: [Counselors] Science HS course progression
<br>
<br>
<div dir="ltr">
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">Hi everyone, I am hoping for some input on HS science course offerings... We have been told that the 10th grade state "science assessment" that replaces the Biology I EOI will actually be Biology content, which means our students that take Biology I as a 9th grader will be at a disadvantage since they are taking Chemistry during their Bio testing year. Also, if any student takes Biology as a junior they would not be prepared at all.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">

</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">We are now looking at having all sophomores take Biology I. The problem is this limits the upper level science courses they can get in before graduation that have biology as a prerequisite. I hesitate on whether we need to cater to the mandated test date- or to meet the needs of the students and continue to allow highly motivated freshmen to take Biology. Also, I am not clear if the Biology pass skills will continue to be the standards tested or if this will be changed again.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">Would anyone be willing to share your course progression and logic for high school science classes? Also, is your understanding of this test the same as what we were told and do any of you have more information on this test for future years?
