The Da Vinci Academy offers students with a strong interest in science and math a project-based curriculum integrating science, math, social science and English classes. Lab activities are an essential part of the curriculum while field trips and projects take science studies outside the classroom. Juniors are paired with an adult mentor who is involved in a career they are interested in exploring, and seniors pursue advanced studies in biology, chemistry, environmental science or physics.
