LANGUAGE ART Language Art, which gives rise to oral and written expression, is so important in a civilization where individual and so- cial contact is frequent. Students soon learn the necessity of clarity and positive- ness when attempting to transmit their ideas and thoughts. MATHEMATICS Daily living shows that there is a wealth of knowledge within the covers of books, magazines, and periodicals. Much of this can be obtained through compre- hensive observation and evaluation. The acquisition of information is part of liv- ing, but the better service is rendered when it is correctly imparted to others. This can be accomplished mainly through systematic study. This English class is a functional organization. GEOGRAPHY just as geographical boundaries have grown closer each year, so too have lan- guage patterns. Exchange students and teachers, foreign pen pals, and world wide travel for many, make a knowledge of other languages a must. This class in Spanish is a positive example of our ef- forts to meet some of the needs of a changing world. W

SOCIAL STUDIES l2A5, under the capable supervision of Mr. Davage, is deep in study of world problems during the History period. De- veloping an awareness and understanding of the many problems that face them, cause these students to give the situation serious thought. DRIVER EDUCATION Mr. Richard Brown stands in the back- ground while watching these seniors ob- serve this thing that we call an automo- bile with curiosity and amazement. An understanding of the mechanical func- tions of the automobile, learning the laws that govern drivers, and creating an awareness of individual responsibilities are a few of the areas covered in this class. HISTORY Here is a class dealing with historical as- pects of democracy. Mr. Bainder, the in- structor, leads his class in the develop- ment of an appreciation of our democrat- ic form of government. Marginal knowl- edge of American democratic principles is an asset to the formation of well in- formed citizens.
