Welcome to High School Biology. This course covers the biological topics that will help students enter the Life Science world. We include information that is relatable and important in real life. Students who finish a year can enroll successfully in Anatomy and Physiology or AP biology courses as they will have the fundamentals pre-requisite and a strong foundation.
