Metro Academic and Classical High School

Announcement 3/23: The content covered thus far during the first year of our IB Physics Course is sufficient for completion of the first year. What we have covered so far is close to the minimum we needed to acheive the first year with the exception of the test on our thermodynamics unit. We can easily recover from this disruption (assuming we come back as normnal in the fall) picking up with the circular motion for the begining of year 2. Follow along with the posted district materials to learn more about the virus for your science lessons during this time. Check back at least weekly to see if the situation has changed.
