Accents Audio-visual Proper pronunciation, reading ability, and knowledge of grammatical structure are the major goals of Spanish I and Il. Original and simple conversations are particularly stressed in these courses. Latin classes are not available this year be- cause universities have become concerned with modern languages. ln place of Latin, German has been added to the curriculum. Next year, classes will rotate in and out of the language labs so the equipment can be util- ized continuously. Bruce Hendry and Mike Rachal listen to a Spanish conversation Charleen Mina Dept.

Beats Time For School Can you imagine a football game without the band? lt wouldn't be the same, nor would many other school events be complete without music department efforts. Surely, no other group con- tributes so widely to a successful total school activities program. The 250 students give an average of about 70 performances yearly at school concerts, sports events, pep assemblies, service clubs and churches, community parades and musicals, and dances. More than a dozen different groups are involved: a marching band, two stage bands, the Pep Band, a concert band, instrumental ensembles, two girl's glee clubs, the Swing Singers concert choir, Spartan Chorus, and Class Voice. For Mrs. Gay, Mr. Cannon, and their students, hundreds of out-of-school-time hours spent practicing and performing for the school and community are commonplace things. g

Science Dept. Outlaws Lab. Manual Cookbooks Every science course at Central has a labora- tory arrangement. A constant search for a new, meaningful experimentation is a goal shared by our science instructors. Now, more than ever, students are being forced to think for themselves rather than relying entirely on the old-fashioned cook book laboratory methods. ln the lab, stu- dents rediscover important principles and learn to take nature's problems and develop answers for them. Half of the entire student body is enrolled in sci- ences of different levels. Of these, approximately one hundred fifty students will take four or more courses in biological or physical science. At the other extreme, introductory physical science and sophomore biology are designed to provide a basic understanding and knowledge of science useful to vocational or humanities students.
