Letter from the
Director
Welcome to the home page for the Science
Department of the Springfield Public School. This site is intended to provide
parents, students, teachers, administrators, and community members with
information regarding the science program. Our goal in producing this website is
to help insure access to the wealth of programs and opportunities available
within the science department.
In the global economy of the 21st century, it is increasingly important that our
children become scientifically literate. In order for them to successfully
compete in this global economy, they must have a strong understanding of
scientific concepts as well as the skills that are developed through a strong
science and technology/engineering education. These skills include critical
thinking, collecting and analyzing data and information, comprehending new
ideas, problem solving, communicating, and decision making. We hope that you
will find the information contained on the website to be useful, and we welcome
your comments and suggestions for improvement of this site.
Sincerely,
Ronald St. Amand |
