Spotlight: The Environment as an Integrated Context
Spotlight on the Environment as an Integrated Context (EIC)
At Arabia Mountain High School, the Environment as an Integrated Context (EIC) curriculum offers students a unique and immersive learning experience. Through this dynamic program, students engage in hands-on, experiential learning focused on ecosystems and environmental sustainability.
The EIC curriculum seamlessly integrates science, mathematics, social studies, and language arts, allowing students to explore complex environmental issues through real-world projects and outdoor activities. By interacting with the local environment, students not only deepen their understanding of these vital topics but also develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
This approach fosters a strong sense of responsibility towards environmental stewardship, empowering students to become informed, engaged citizens ready to make a positive impact on their communities and the world.
