-QCA, V! D45 3-3' pu 0-3 Experimental main ppremefesfasfer understandin ith the advent of technical science courses requiring advanced mathematical knowledge. it has become neces- sary to experiment in methods of modernizing math eur- riculum in high school. To keep abreast of the changes in this area, the depart- ment has made many advancements: A new general mathematics course was instituted. All geometry students studied a course in which plane and solid geometry were integrated. Advanced junior classes in algebra had a new textbook with a modern viewpoint. Five overhead pro- jectors were made available to the geometry teachers by the A-Y department and overhead screens were installed in math classrooms. Students had many opportunities to display their achievements in mathematics. Over 360 students regis- tered for the annual State Xlathematics Contest. Twelve were awarded prizes as winners and ISS were given certifi- cates of proficiency. Three students entered the Blathe- matical Association of America contest. Their combined scores of 190.75 placed our school in fourth place among 53 participating schools in the Southwest.
