This course provides a comprehensive introduction to high school biology, using Exploring Creation Through Biology (2nd Edition) from Apologia Science Curriculum. Students will explore the wonders of God’s creation through the lens of life science, integrating scientific study with a biblical worldview. Topics will include the scientific method, cell structure, genetics, ecology, classification, and the diversity of life.
Students will develop foundational knowledge, practice critical thinking, conduct hands-on experiments, and apply their learning through labs, discussions, projects, and exams. This course meets the requirements for a high school biology credit with a lab component.
