Science Mission:

It is the Mission of Akron Public School and Firestone High School to help every student be successful in learning science. Learning Science is enjoyable and challenging. Teachers have high expectations for all students. Teachers use a constructivist, inquiry-approach to teaching science. Students are encouraged to ask questions, make predictions and design investigations. Students obtain evidence that will contribute to the solutions of a problem and develop the expertise needed to evaluate and defend a scientific argument and critique scientific investigations. Students graduate scientifically literate.
