Science
 
Developments in science and technology have improved our way of living and have become a major influence on our culture. No one in our culture escapes the direct influence of science. Because of the impact of science on our social, economic, and political institutions, the education of every responsible citizen must include not only the basic principles but also the attitudes and processes of scientific thought.
 

We are fortunate to have 9 state-of-the-art lab/classrooms, custom-designed and equipped with the latest in technology, that are used each day by students in every science class. These high-tech lab/classrooms incorporate the use of computers in lecture, laboratory experiments, and various learning activities.

 

By continuing to combine traditional teaching methods with modern technology and by expanding the information and activities available through worldwide resources via the Internet, Jesuit presents its students with new interactive tools that will result in the accomplishment of greater objectives in biology, chemistry, physics, and environmental science.
