Ninth grade general science provides back- ground for study in biology, physics and chemistry. Such subjects as light, heat, sottnd and electricity are treated in the course. Although lrogs, worms and dissection do not appeal to some pupils, all sophomores must take a biology course. .-Xs you pass the biology lab, it is not unusual to see students working at microscopes or on a test which requires that they know the ltnulatnentals ol' plant and animal lile. Plant and animal phyla must be memorized and the lile lunc- tions learned thoroughly by sophomores. Learning the laws ol' simple machines and elec- tricity and the uses to which they are Iltll in the modern world are only two ol' the tasks that junior class physicists are trying to complete. 'l'o complete their high school scietut' studies. seniors strive to learn formulas and put them to practical use in ehentislrt lab sessions. Stttdyittg' composition ol matter and the atomic' theory are both an important part ol Chemistry. BRINGING JUNGLE ATMOSPHERE into ihe biology classroom is a 'tropical planf. Miss Johnson, Bonnie Christiansen, Herman Fransen and Donna Draayer are among lhe numerous admirers of +he specimen.

These consist ol' plane geometry, solid geometry, advanced algebra, plane trigonometry and general mathemat- ics. Plane geometry is designed lor sophomores who wish to increase their algebraic ability and prepare for solid geometry and trigonometry in their senior year. The student benefits greatly in the process ol logical thinking. Solid geometry, an elective lor seniors, requires only one-hall year to complete. It is an absolute pre-requisite for engineering courses. Advanced algebra's main characteristic is learn- ing to solve angular problems together with skill in mechanical manipulation. Another hall'-year course is plane trigonometry. The practical aspect rather than the theoretical is considered largely in this course. Problems directly Zliiiijlillllg each student is the objective ol' general mathematics. Topics covered include installment buying. insuranfe and taxation.
