Science, Technology & Engineering

Pentucket High School offers a well-balanced science program to all students.  Our primary goal is twofold:

  1. To establish scientific literacy so that our students, upon entering the workforce, can make intelligent decisions regarding science-based issues.

  2. To provide a strong foundation in science for those students who plan to attend college.

Each course is structured to emphasize the process of science as a way of thinking and solving problems. The laboratory experience is a way in which special skills are developed to achieve this goal.  With emphasis placed on the laboratory, the student develops both an understanding of and an appreciation for inquiry and scientific methodology.
