Participation Aids Interest Remember when school was read- ing and writing? Times have changed a little. Students no longer just sit at desks and work on reading and writ- ing skills. Students also learn by doing. This often makes learning more ap- pealing, and if it is more appealing, students are more apt to learn. 1. Mike Layland shows a lot of ded ication and patience in building a scale model of a house for building construction class. 2. In sixth period science class, freshmen throw paper airplanes in order to study the forces that act on them. 3. Joe Richardson heartily eats a piece of cake in the foods II dessert contest. 4. Ronell Rabe, a physics student, works on an experiment in the lab. 5. Jane Dickey mixes a malt for her demonstration speech in freshman English class. 6. Lana Fredriksen, Cindy Testroet, and Lisa Henry put the finishing touches on a pie in German I class. 18 Academics

Are Academics Slighted ? (continued front page 16) tionnaire. “I am happy to be a member of this community. Audubon is a good town and I like the friendly people,” added Mr. Wantbold. Mr. Timmons, “ ... would like to see more emphasis on academics, es- pecially for the so-inclined students! Mrs. Hansen concluded by saying, ”1 think it’s too bad that so many stu- dents never realize that teachers are human beings, too. Ninety-nine per- cent of us are legitimately trying to help them; we’re not out to get them. I didn't decide to be a teacher until my senior year in college, and 1 some- times wonder if 1 made the right choice. 1 sincerely hope that somehow in my career 1 will have made an im- pact on at least one student-then it will have been worthwhile.” 1.
