This Week in Biology (Aug 17-21)

 In Biology, Scholars Prep Science - 7th Grade

Dear Parents and students,

It has been my pleasure to work with your students this past week.  This week we will be discussing cell biology.  Your student will need a few supplies for the labs this week. Please ask them to look over the labs and see what they need each week.  For instance, this week they will need straws this week.  Please let me know if you need any assistance with this.
