Mr. Fermen Reed Mr. Stanley Poelstra Mr. James Eggleston MATHEMATICS Math is the language of science. It speaks in numbers, symbols, and signs in our lives each day. With the newly learned theorems, students are able to gain an understanding to problems that surround us. The knowledge gained from these courses is just one step toward the training in the field of mathematics. With each new finding in technology, math- ematics is improved. All of these principles provide greater gains in knowledge for students. Looking at it from another angle. It all adds up? 27

SCIENCE Science, defined by Webster, is the “systematic knowledge of our physi- cal and material world.” With this knowledge man has learned newer and quicker methods to improve his surroundings. Students gain the training and knowledge needed to prepare them for the future. Because of the advances being made, it is im- perative that biology, chemistry, and physics be studied more generally. Sciences explain some common oe- curances in everyday life so that they seem technical. Mr. Michael Reynolds Mr. Tom Alward Mr. Garland (Mike) Jones Don't you know that flowers don’t grow in streams.

LANGUAGES: THE KEY TO COMMUNICATIONS Languages are probably the most important courses to be taught in schools. They are the basis for our ability to communicate with others. In order to do this we need to know how to speak, write, and read effec- tively. Spanish (taught by Mrs. Lar- son) and Latin (taught bv Mrs. Rod- key) are the only foreign languages taught at Rossville. Our English teachers are: Mr. Eiler, who teaches senior, junior, and eighth grade Eng- lish plus Speech, Mrs. Rodkcy, who teaches sophomores and eighth grade English besides Latin, Mrs. Thomas, who takes care of all General Eng- lish classes and Miss King, who teaches English to our freshman students. Spanish students learning more about Spain. 28
