The Environmental Sciences Magnet School at Mary M. Hooker offers a comprehensive program which includes inquiry-based, hands-on investigations of our local and global environments. Using the new, state-of-the-art building and campus, students monitor, test, and collect data throughout the year noting human impacts on our environment. The building and campus provide many different ecosystems and labs which allow students to directly experience and explore local living organisms from plants to butterflies. Students will work side-by-side with our resident marine scientist and entomologist in the aquatics lab, greenhouse, butterfly Vivarium, and an Interactive Science Theatre. Our science magnet provides a rich elementary and middle school experience which prepares students to enter high-quality high school science and technology programs. These experiences will develop the critical thinking skills required for success in the emerging fields of medicine, engineering, and environmental sciences.
