Welcome to Academy for Academic Enhancement Middle School and to 7th Grade Honors Science.  I, Mrs. E. Salinas, look forward to working with you to build upon and enrich your scientific skills and knowledge.  We will be taking a hands on approach to the study of life science.  We are here to learn and learning can be fun, however, to be successful in science it will take hard work!
