Biomedical Academy

 

“Men love to wonder and that is the seed of science.”

                                         ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

The academy consists of a four year high school sequence of courses from Project Lead the Way for students interested in math, science, and the human body through hands on educational experiences.  Students take courses such as Principles of the Biomedical Sciences, Human Body Systems, Medical Intervention and Science Research.  

 

As with the PLTW engineering program, the rigorous curriculum uses the activities, projects, and problems modality that is grounded in real-world relevance. This approach addresses the learning styles and needs of the majority of students. The courses are hands-on and allow students to apply the concepts they learn in other mathematics and science courses.

All students interested in pursuing a career in biological sciences, emergency services, healthcare or medicine will be prepared to go seek two or four year college studies in these fields.  With the final year of scientific research and a mentorship, students also gain practical application of skills learned throughout the program.

 

Santa Rosa Academy offers high school students on all tracks the opportunity to participate in the Biomedical Academy if their schedule permits.  Students take classes at the Menifee Campus and use brand new state-of-the art lab equipment and new Macintosh laptop computers to complete their lab work.  The school is committed to ensuring student access to up to date materials and instructional strategies within the Biomedical program.
