Changes occur by Lynne Manrlque Several changes occurred in sci- ence department according to Rob- ert Stuart, chairperson. GATE Biology was added to the roster of science courses. Taught by Fred Manke, this class was designed as an accelerated course for those sophomores who had taken GATE Earth Science in their freshman year. Other changes includ- ed the addition of two teachers: Rog- er Dickson taught Biology, and Sue Sweetman taught a science-health competency course. Both were also instructors in Agriculture Department. Mr. Stuart expected more changes in the department following the imposi- tion of stricter high school graduation requirements which call for two years of science instead of one for all stu- dents. Seemingly in anticipation of the new requirements, enrollment was up in all science courses, added Mr. Stu- art. He attributed this increase of inter- est in science classes to what he called a generally more serious atti- tude toward school on the students' part. Beverly Dahlgren Assistant Principal BA, MA - Chico State enjoys traveling. reading, collecting model clipper ships, camping, people watching at GDHS 24 years

Math functions: summing it up by Geoff Sprinkle Many departments added an array of GATE classes, and math depart- ment was no exception. Three GATE math classes were offered: Algebra, Geometry, and Advanced Algebra. Math recruited veterans to play new positions. Government teacher Robert Smith and Spanish instructor Rena Niet- mann taught general math classes, along with John Cosner, who was hired in mid-October. Sammy Jenkins, math chairperson, was optimistic about the new classes and teachers. She felt that now the math department was capable of offering math classes that met the needs of most students.
