The faculty continues the In-Depth Study of Science with three specific tasks:  an analysis of the ITBS testing results; a review of our progress teaching the California Science Standards; and discussions of research-based, effective instructional techniques.    As we complete these tasks we will create an action plan defining our goals to improve the Science program.  Each year we focus on the action plan for every academic area; the Religion plan was reviewed at last Friday’s meeting.  As we prepare for the 30th Anniversary, Catholic Schools’ Week, and The Palmisano Writing Contest, we synced our calendars too.
