Mathematics ls The Alphabet With Which God Has Written The Universe Galileo Mr Larsen OPPOSITE FAR LEFT: Although most math classes were usually under a teacher's watchful eye, students somehow managed to pass notes around the classroom. Here Ricky Lamb eagerly opens a note passed from a nearby friend. OPPOSITE LEFT: Caught in the middle of a busy day, Mr. McDonald pauses for a moment's rest at his blackboard. LEFT: Whenever anyone had a question, Ms. Boyajian could always be counted on to give assistance, as seen here when she stays after class to help a student with the homework assignment. BELOW: Besides homework and tests, this pre-calculus class finds that it takes a lot of listening to understand all of math's complexities.

WFMWWHEWYWHWTWCI Math Classes Add Up Another Year This year, Blair once again kept its tradition of providing a broad field of study in math, one of the schooI's most rigorous courses. Whether it was the math proficiency student, anxious to learn the basic concepts in order to go on to pre-algebra, or just to graduateg the algebra and geometry student, climbing the ladder to attain the ultimate pinnacle of advanced mathg or the pre-calculus student, working diligently for three years to reach calculus, all experienced the triumphs and frustrations of study- ing math. Heading the math department this year was Ms. Judy Taylor. Under her leadership, teachers managed to guide their students through a year consisting of what often seemed like an infinite number of problems, tests and quizzes. While math classes themselves were quite varied, each student felt the personal satisfaction of adding up yet another year of math. ix if if il' 'f 'l 'Y a J? . 4 T ft ' A. - t ' jk y
