Mathematics courses in DeKalb County elementary schools attempt to strengthen reasoning and problem-solving skills with the use of technology and hands-on activities. As they advance in grade level, classes will focus on teaching students how to write expressions and equations and analyze numerical relationships. High school courses will include subject matter from algebra, geometry, statistic, and probability.
Science courses provide students with skills that will allow them to be proficient and knowledgeable in a variety of scientific topics. An emphasis on fieldwork and investigation is present in all courses throughout every grade level. Students in grades K-5 will identify and discuss the physical attributes of the world around them, in addition to learning how to effectively communicate scientific ideas. Middle school students will continue their exploration of life science and will be introduced to the concept of evolution.

Chalk Talk: Considerations About Private Colleges
Private colleges are becoming more and more expensive, but with this expense can come many benefits and can be defrayed through scholarships, work study programs, and federal loans. Because private colleges are funded by tuition, they tend to treat students more like customers, which means they want to make sure students have a positive experience. This often translates to lifestyle concerns, such as the quality of the food in the dining hall, on campus activities, and the like. Private colleges tend to be smaller and try to focus on the needs of the individual students, which includes academic support. Class sizes tend to be smaller, as well, which can be of great help to students who can be overwhelmed in a larger classroom experience.
