Honors Chemistry (Period 6)
Course Description
Honors Chemistry
Chemistry covers the properties of matter, its composition, and its changes. Chemistry, like most subjects in science, builds on concepts and skills throughout the year, so it is essential that students keep up with the work as it is presented.
