Balanced Science Instruction
Mission
The Cobb County Science program provides a hands-on, experienced-based curriculum where K-12 students explore the characteristics and phenomena of our natural and man-made world. Through engaging and rigorous instruction students investigate problems, develop evidence-based explanations, and learn how to communicate their findings in a precise and effective manner. In doing so, our students gain the process skills and content understanding necessary to develop into creative thinkers and efficient problem solvers who can engineer solutions to the natural and man-made problems that await our attention.
Accelerated science courses including AC, AP, and IB courses are offered to students in 6-12th grade. Students also have opportunities to take a wide variety of science elective courses including such classes as Forensics, Anatomy, Environmental Science, and Astronomy.
The electronic translation service is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The Cobb County School District does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the District encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The Cobb County School District is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.
