The main goal of the High School Chemistry Programme is to equip students with the necessary skills so that they can have a command of the core concepts, principles, models, theories, and laws of chemistry and they can explain the issues of daily life, health, industry, and environment through the use of relevant knowledge and skills acquired in chemistry classes in grade 9 and 10. Students will be able to review the structure of the atom, the basic characteristics of gases, the preparation and basic characteristics of solutions, the basic laws of thermodynamics, the speed and balance in chemical reactions, the notions of acidity and alkalinity, matter-electricity relationship and the notions and relationships within the scope of the structure and use of organic compounds in grades 11 and 12. The chemistry program has a practical component, as well. Students carry out experiments at labs.

We aim for our students to:

• recognize the basic chemistry concepts, symbols, and abbreviations,
• acknowledge the logic behind the chemical calculations,
• draw solutions by interpreting the numerical data,
• deduce, interpret and reach to generalizations using the data they obtained at the experiments,
• appreciate the fact that all chemistry program components are interrelated.
