About

This session is for students preparing for AP Physics 1 or looking to strengthen their foundation in physics. We’ll work through core topics such as kinematics, dynamics, energy, momentum, rotational motion, oscillations, and waves, with sessions tailored to your needs. Students should be comfortable with Algebra II and basic trigonometry. Please bring a notebook, a calculator, and any practice materials or textbooks you’d like to use. This is a fast-paced challenging course.
