Theology Bibles, statues, crucifixes, chapel, liturgies, prayers, priests, and sisters are all visible signs around Andrean exemplifying without words that we are a Catholic Christian school. But we do not stop at external signs; we internalize our faith in our study of theology. Our theology classes help us to understand our faith and nourish its growth so that we are spiritually prepared to face and to cope with a complex and sometimes chaotic universe. Our study of our religion causes us to become increasingly aware of the presence of God in our world and in ourselves. Biblical Literature and New Testament in ninth and tenth grades teach us the foundations of our faith. Psychology helps us to understand ourselves and each other as children of God. Faith and Morality prepare us to participate in society as responsible Christian adults. TOP: Sr. Edith listens intently as Elaine Mendez presents a report to a New Testament class.

English Verbs, nouns, complex sentences, clauses, novels, poems, plays, and paragraphs are parts of the wide variety of disciplines on which our Andrean English department focuses to make us think and write clearly, speak fluently and read comprehensively and critically. Often our success in our other subjects depends on our knowledge of and expertise with our native language. In the midst of a difficult drill on the mechanics of grammar or the fascination of an interesting story or character in literature, the Andrean student is allowed to exercise his creativity in both written and oral English. The concern of the English department is not only to develop the basic and necessary skills of the English language but to encourage us to use these skills in the development and expression of our own unique personalities. 20 — English Rev.
