All courses will meet graduation re- quirements. Accelerated classes provide a more comprehensive approach for capable students. General Biology informs stu- dents of the basic characteristics and functions- of living things. Advanced Biology, a college preparatory laboratory course offered to iuniors and seniors, acquaints students with the principles of the biotic world. Students learn of the variety and complexity of life and of the ecological and taxonomic re- lationships between the maior phyla of plants, animals, and protists. Botany, also a college pre- paratory laboratory course of- fered to juniors and seniors, in- cludes a systemic study of the plant kingdom emphasizing the evolutionary relationships be- tween plant phyla. Also offered is Physical Science, which cov- ers some of man's discoveries and their technical applications. Both the Chemistry and Physics courses stress the explanation of scientific theories through labor- atory experiences. Science Club JOHN D. DANCER ROBERT JACKSON WALTER LA GIER A.B., M.A. A.B.

Mathematics IN THIS MODERN WORLD, the study of Mathematics is neces- sary for an understanding of the ever-increasing technical ad- vancements. Arcadia's mathe- matics curriculum has become increasingly more comprehens- ive to meet students' needs. Courses offered include Al- gebra l and II, Plane and Solid Geometry, and Trigonometry as well as a complete accelerated program in these courses. Gen- eral and Refresher Math is of- fered to students who need greater competence in basic arithmetic skills. Students completing Algebra I and Plane Geometry in iunior high school will advance to ac- celerated Algebra II at the soph- omore level. At the senior level these students will be offered Mathematics Analysis, which in- cludes Trigonometry and an in- troduction to Calculus. Algebra I includes quadratic equations with logarithms and probability being Algebra Il. Plane Geometry has a pre- requisite of Algebra I.
