Science Department

Scientific literacy is an essential component in the education of the whole person, as are the critical reading and thinking skills that are crucial for proper and well-informed decision making. The science department strives to help the student to understand the diversity and the complexity of the physical and biological worlds and their relationship to everyday life. A major goal is to develop in the student the ability to engage in intelligent, science and technology-related discussions and debates. The department is committed to stimulating the student’s interest in pursuing the fields of science and technology in the future, and to equipping her with the knowledge and skills that she will need to achieve her goals.

We celebrate more than a century of nurturing the spiritual, intellectual, social and moral development of students as they distinguish themselves as women of great heart and right conscience.
