Mathematics Department The housewife making rapid calculation in the supermarket to determine which of two products is the better buy, the scientist computing an intersection orbit for a satellite, the business man running a cost survey, the farmer studying mar- ket conditions — all are using mathe- matical skills. Analy’s Mathematics Department has two principal objectives: to prepare stu- dents for advanced study in mathematics and science, and to give students a mathematical background adequate to success in future life. Students are also encouraged to enter mathematics proj- ects in the Science Fair, thus increasing their skills in the field of mathematics. PAGE 27

Foreign Language Department In an era which increasingly demands that na- tions be able to talk to each other effectively, the Foreign Language Department at Analy intensi- fied and broadened its efforts in this field. The language laboratory, in its third year at Analy, gave students an opportunity to hear the sounds of a language and to compare their pronuncia- tions with that of native speakers. Students are also given wide experiences in reading, and writing the languages taught. These included this year: Latin, French, and Spanish. PAGE 26
