Anatomy and Physiology
for 11th & 12th grades
Mission Statement
Our mission is to inspire and equip future healthcare professionals with a comprehensive understanding of the human body and its functions. Through hands-on learning, scientific inquiry, and critical thinking, we strive to cultivate a foundation of anatomical knowledge that is both rigorous and relevant to real-world applications in healthcare. Our course fosters a passion for lifelong learning, empathy, and respect for human life, preparing students to contribute meaningfully to the health and wellness of others in their future careers.
Marrow-lyn is our course mascot. She’s something of a fashion icon in her purple tie-dye lab coat.
