Welcome Middle/High School Science Teachers!
Welcome to the ESC - Region 19 middle/high school science site. The science team at Region 19 supports success for all students through teacher and administrator education and collaboration.
Middle school is not only a continuation of learning facts and vocabulary, but also developing the ability to ask scientific questions, plan experiments to answer these questions, and develop reasonable explanations based on their observations. High school science will provide a way to extend a student's interest and skill in understanding the nature and importance of science in today's world. All of our sessions and technical support are built on these principles.
Our goal is to equip teachers with the knowledge and skills to engage students in meaningful science learning experiences that will improve students' scientific literacy and inspire them to pursue science and engineering-related careers.
