Welcome! 


This site is designed to

 provide information and resources

to parents and students about 

PreK-grade 6 science education in the

Westborough Public Schools in

 Westborough, Massachusetts.


Massachusetts, along with many other states, has adopted new standards for preK-12 science education. While previous standards emphasized content acquisition and inquiry skills separately, newer standards bring together key science content and important science practices. As such, they set forth a vision of science teaching and learning in which students are actively engaged in the critical thinking, discourse, and activities of scientists to learn about the world around them.
