Science Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE) 9-12


​​On June 9, 2016, the State Board of Education approved the K-12 Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE) for Science. On July 18, 2019, the State Board of Education approved the Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE) for the following high school science courses:  Astronomy, Botany, Ecology, Entomology, Epidemiology, Forensic Science, Geology, Human Anatomy & Physiology, Meteorology, Microbiology, Oceanography, and Zoology.  These Science GSE courses were​ implemented during the 2020-2021 school year.
 

The Science Frameworks provide one way that teachers, schools, and districts might organize and teach the Georgia Standards of Excellence within units. Frameworks include curriculum maps, pacing guides, and instructional segments. All segments are phenomenon-based and are structured in a 5E format. In addition, each instructional segment includes dedicated supports for struggling learners. ​
