Enthusiasm abounds in Mrs. Shirley Roebuck’s class. iy i ONE OF THE BEST IN THE CITY “One of the best in the city!”, boasted Mr. Richard Powell referring to Jenkins’ science de- partment. Mr. Powell was the head of the science department and has been head of the department now for 15 years. The science department included seven differ- ent areas: Biology, Life Science, Chemistry, Physics, Physical Science, Human Physiology, and Horticulture. Like many of the other pilots in the development of the Long Range Plan, the Horticulture class was unique to Jenkins. The science program played an integral part in the newly formed math and science program. It attracted students of high math and science abili- ty from all over the city. Dr. Neal Mullis and Mr. Bill Woodruff taught science to the AAMSP stu- dents. With the changes presented by the Long Range Plan, three science teachers were added to the science department: Mr. Bill Woodruff, a re- cent addition from Savannah High, Dr. Gerald Calandra, a PhD and former lawyer, and Ms. Sherrie Chambers, who splits her work day be- tween Jenkins and Windsor Forest. Mr. Leonard Kantziper, Mrs. Shirley Roebuck, and Ms. Na- omi Lcbay rounded out the rest of the science department. Deanna Douglas Science 29
