Zcimce Science at Enka assumes forms which fulfill needs of students. Courses include chemistry, physics, biology, earth science, general science, and senior science. In these classes students learn the basic facts, and later apply these fundamentals in their personal conclusions and discoveries. Through the laboratories at Enka, science becomes a living subiect, and students enioy the learning process. The study of both natural and physical science becomes increasingly important today, and Enka has much to offer to the young scientist.

Our heritage as a nation can be better understood and appreciated through the study of the social sciences, and at Enka, opportunity abounds. By learning about our world, and eventually, our nation, students develop a more acute awareness of the cultures and customs which combined to make the world what it is at the present time. Current history is stressed, and students become appreciative of the ever-changing state of the world. ?

Zllntlizmuhcs Those at Enka who come in con- tact with the Math Department are aware of vast changes in this field. The modern approach is stressed, and students often find themselves more interested. A course in combined plane and solid geometry, and a course combining trigonometry, cal- culus, and analytical geometry are among the recently introduced studies. Through mathematics we learn to reason more clearly, and to think in a more orderly manner. 4 ,I J mf' ii!!
