3. Get students excited about science by having them participate in relevant, realistic, hands-on science activities.
4. Improve scores on state-mandated standardized assessments.
5. Support each other in our efforts to become better professional science educators.
6. Connect all major activities and course descriptions to the California Science Standards, and analyze course descriptions and test results for standards we may not be meeting.
