for challenges of the nuclear age Geometry students carefully decorate the traditional Christmas tree with their geometric projects. Don't laugh, John; maybe the drawing's invisible. We learned to add, subtract, and multiply. The math department of A.H.S. offers courses for every type of student. College prep students study geometry, advanced algebra, and trigonometry while commercial students take courses in business arithmetic.

science and math prepare students Mr. Rice explains to Cheryl Crontz, Jake Porter, and Carol Thompson how to produce oxygen. In biology we learned about the birds and bees and the hornets. While dissecting frogs, insects, and the like, we learned it wasn't as hard on the animals as it was for some girls. Amid pops and sparks, we experimented to find out how to make new substances. With only a few mishaps, future chemists came out of the lab with smiles on their faces. Watch out everybody! Mr. Hall has a live hornets' nest in his hand. Donna, that mischievous look tells us you may be planning to blow up the lab.

S. improve their English. In four years we learned to diagram sentences, to use good grammar, to write compositions, to understand American and English literature, and to give impromptu and prompted speeches. We also learned not to do certain things, such as saying git and ain't and using dangling participles. Each senior English student looked forward to class play tryouts, in which only the hest actors and actresses achieved success. Sophomore students eagerly act out Caesar's death. Is It possible that Mr. Hudson is playing Caesar? What is that funny looped writing on the board? Maybe it is a new American teenage style.
