FREQUENTLY ASKED SCIENCE QUESTIONS
1. Tell me about the NEW 9th grade Science Course:
2. How does the College Board's change to the AP Physics curriculum impact the courses at OPHS?
We know that the first year of implementation of a change made by the College Board can be difficult for students to adjust to. This impacts the class of 2014-15 primarily. We are available to answer any clarifying questions you might have. For this graduating class, we recommend that if you are making a choice between taking one or the other that you take the most rigorous course that is appropriate for your schedule. We as well as colleges support this change because it allows for time to have more in-depth study of the important topics.
3. I am not sure if I want to take Honors or AP Biology next year. Can you tell me the differences or give suggestions?
