Formula Finders Show us that great profile Mr. Groves! Sharon Grand Edwin Groves loonda deVries George Fisher Mr. Antoine flashes a smile for his students. Our mathematics Dept, is made up of a very unique group of teachers. The result is a group that works very well together with a lot of sharing and cooperation in an excellent math curriculum which is appreciated by all students. The Math Department tries to adjust offerings to best meet the needs of the students. A major concern among the math teachers has been to try and stress to students to take four of the preparatory courses offered. No new courses were offered this year, but plans are under way to offer next year a pre-algebra course and an advanced math course directed towards business calculus.
