The mission of the LCPS Academy of Science is to provide an academic environment where students are encouraged to develop creative scientific endeavors of their own design, while having the opportunity to pursue a rich, well-rounded high school experience. A student at the Academy of Science (AOS) will acquire skills to ask sophisticated scientific questions and conduct research and experimentation, to explore the interconnections between the sciences, math, and the humanities, to read, write, and communicate at a level that is required of university students, and to develop perspectives to assess the impact of scientific advancements on society. for more information visit http://cmsweb1.lcps.org/aos

What is the IAAT?

The Iowa Algebra Aptitude Test, or IAAT, is used by many elementary schools to place 5th/6th graders (depending on the county) into an appropriate math track. For students looking to accelerate their math curriculum and take classes like Algebra or Geometry in middle school, doing well on the IAAT is a crucial step. MyTjPrep offers IAAT prep to help 5th and 6th graders looking to secure their math-related goals.
