These courses, under Mrs. Donna Burke, include lectures, discussions, and lab work. The labs are always busy and signs of various experiments in progress can readily be seen and many times these experiments can be readily smelled. In Biology, dissection of organisms is most interesting laboratory work, while the Physics classes study mechanics, light, sound, and electricity. The Physics class is another one of the courses which is part of the shared program with Juda High School. DOWM BURKG

The various sports and activities which the students participate in are designed to develop fitness as well as coordination and good sportsmanship. The Physical Education classes at Albany help promote physical fitness in our student body. Students participate in classes that stress clean competitive athletics, that build strength, and which build endurances. Lifetime Sports is a new class offered in the Phy. Ed. curriculum this year. This class proved to interest many students as could be seen by the enrollment in the course. Phy. Ed. classes are taught by Mrs. Lois Sherwin and Mr. Rick Volkman.
