Math—frustrating .. . In today’s scientific and technological civiliza- tion, a knowledge of mathematics is essential to the educated individual to develop his sense of responsibility and logical thinking. Freshmen begin with Algebra I, learning the basics of modern mathe- matics. Sophomores continue with Geometry, a necessary and interesting course. College prepara- tory upperclassmen are offered Algebra II, Advanced Math, Intermediate Math, and Functions. The mathematics department under Sister Therese Agnes includes Sister Mary Virginia, Sister Marie Donna, Sister Mary Philomena, Mr. Thomas Maccarone, and Mrs. Sandra Weintraub. “No answer yet?” queries Math department chairman, S.M. Therese Agnes in her Advanced Math class. Sister also teaches Intermediate and Junior Math, Geometry and Algebra and moderates the Student Council. “Two heads are better than one,” say Robin Malin and Marjorie Masse as they master-mind a complex problem. Sophomore mathematicians concentrate on angles and parallels with Mrs. Sandra Wein- traub, Math—Science and girls’ Physical Edu- cation teacher.
