FAQ
How is this course different than your 4th/5th-grade Earth Science course?
Geoscience is targeted at the middle school Next Generation Science Standards, while Earth Science was aimed at the NGSS for grades 4 and 5. You can think of Geoscience as a second semester of Earth Science. The Geoscience course also pairs well with the Astronomy course in fulfilling the Middle School Earth and Space Sciences Standards.
Will the course be available as a self-paced course?
Yes. Many families choose to watch the replays instead of attending the live sessions.
Will there be any scholarships available?
Yes. Our patrons have generously provided scholarships for families whose need support. Apply here.
