TEAMAN A.B., Allegheny College M.A., University of Pittsburgh Algebra, Plane Geometry Math Department Makes Headway in Advanced Courses In the past few years American high schools have been emphasizing math and sciences in their school programs. In keeping with this trend Long Branch High has been gradually accelerating its math courses so that now a student may have a five-year course of math. Such courses as Theory of Numbers and Logic are being taught to tenth grade students. Trigonometry and Solid Geometry have been expanded to include Trigonometric Functions and Analytic Geometry. Many of our math students take part in the contests given at New York University and Rut- gers. Also, students wishing to do so, can work on outside math projects and come to our teachers for help. For Business and General Course students the Math Department has courses to help meet a person’s needs in every day life. These students are accjuainted with interest, insurance, and banking problems. The technological and scientific advances of the modern world demand an increasing command of basic mathematics. The Math Department of Long Branch High has met the present demand with notable advances in the curricula. JOHN V. WILSON A.B., Montclair State College Algebra, Geometry MARY A.
