SC: SCIENCE FOR CITIZENS 11
Prerequisite: Science 10 or by permission/placement.
Basically, science is if you don't take the college
SC: PHYSICS 11
Prerequisite: Science 10 and Math 10
Recommended: C+ or better in both Science 10 and Math 10, and Math 11 taken concurrently
The Topics include: study of motion and forces, DC circuits, energy, wave motion applied to either sound or light and Einstein’s theory of special relativity E=MC². A scientific calculator is required.
SC: PHYSICS 12
Prerequisite: Physics 11 and Math 11
Recommended: C+ or better in Physics 11 and Math 11, and Math 12 taken concurrently
The topics studied in this course include two-dimensional motion and forces, energy, circular motion, and electricity and magnetism. A scientific calculator is required.
SC: ADVANCED PLACEMENT PHYSICS 12
Prerequisite: Physics 11 and Pre-Cal 11
Recommended: Physics 12 and Pre-Cal 12
AP Physics 1 is an algebra-based, introductory college-level physics course. The topics they will explore are: kinematics, dynamics, circular motion and gravitation, energy, momentum, simple harmonic motion, torque, and rotational motion, electric charge and electric force, DC circuits, and mechanical waves and sound.
"To qualify for first-year university chemistry credit, students must obtain school credit and a minimum
score of 4 (four) on the Advanced Placement College Board of Chemistry Examination, written in early May. All institutions may not give this credit. UBC and SFU do.
Note: This course is offered in combination with Chemistry 12. Students must have completed Chemistry 12 or take it concurrently with AP Chemistry." ~from Palmer website

Incentive program
(Quick recap of the Incentive program)
The "Incentive program" is an extension program where current courses are pushed to more advanced levels.
-These courses are the standard mandatory classes, such as English, Math, Science, and Social Studies.
-This course is made for students thwhore "above average" or looking for a challenge.
-To join, you need to take a test (date not known) containing the standard course material.l you were already in incentive and haven't gotten kicked out, you will automatically be sent to incentive.
-To stay in the incentive, you must have a straight proficient
- extending grades, any lower and you will be kicked out and reapply if you want to rejoin
SC: SCIENCE 8/9 INCENTIVE
Required: Accepted into the Incentive Program (see description above).
Courses learnt include Life Processes, The Kinetic Molecular Theory, Plate Tectonics, Light and the Electromagnetic Spectrum and Electricity. Learning will focus on the development of scientific skills and processes, critical thought and increased scientific knowledge. A mandatory Science Fair project is required for the Science Incentive course. Incentive students who successfully and satisfactorily complete this course may subsequently register for Science 9/10 Incentive.
SC: SCIENCE 9/10 INCENTIVE
Required: Accepted into the Incentive Program (see description above), as well as full completion of Science 8/9 Incentive course.
Incentive Grade 9 students will cover the Science 9 course, learnt from Incentive Science 8, as well as the Science 10 curriculum. The topics included such as: Genes as the foundation for the diversity of living things, energy is conserved and how the transformation can affect living things and the environment, chemical processes require energy change as atoms are rearranged, and the Big Bang theory. Discussion and debate a common ways to show learning and understanding, as well as a mandatory Science Fair project that is similar to the one they did last year. Students will receive credit for Science 10 upon the successful completion of this course.
SC: CHEMISTRY 11
Prerequisite: Science 10 and Math 10
Recommended: C+ or better in both Science 10 and Math 10
Topics include: description of matter, classification of matter, periodic table, atomic theory, naming compounds, mole concept, stoichiometry, aqueous ionic reactions, and organic chemistry. Other options for subjects and courses are provided, such as nuclear chemistry, gases, biochemistry, environmental and industrial chemistry. A scientific calculator would be highly recommended for this course.
SC: CHEMISTRY 12
Prerequisite: Chemistry 11
Recommended: C+ or better in Chemistry 11 and Math 11
The areas of study include: kinetics, chemical equilibrium, solubility, acids and bases, and electrochemistry. Substantial laboratory work will be required and involve quantitative and qualitative analysis. Emphasis will be placed on problem-solving, conceptual understanding, and critical thinking.
SC: ADVANCED PLACEMENT CHEMISTRY 12
Prerequisite: Chemistry 11
Recommended: B or better in Chemistry 11
This course is designed to be similar to the classes taken during the 1st year of uni or college.
Topics to be covered include: Structure of Matter, Organic Chemistry, States of Matter, Descriptive Chemistry, Reactions, and Laboratory.
