Sup- ported by the National Science Foundation, the School Mathematics Study Group is designed to pre- pare students for college mathematics courses. Un- der the instruction of three new teachers, classes covered all areas of secondary math. Freshman classes studied basic concepts in Al- gebra Survey and Algebra | courses. Advanced stu- dents received further instruction in these areas. Geometric theorems were the topic of the sopho- mores’ studies. Students were encouraged to in- vestigate related subjects in individual projects. Junior math students studied Algebra Il and Trigonometry. In Math IV classes, seniors reviewed trig and received instruction in Functions and Analytic Geometry. Richard Ronto and Mary Ann Capaldo demonstrate algebra problems to Algebra Survey students.

| | : concepts of subjects Students received instruction in scientific theories in four courses offered this year. The spring Science Fair, sponsored by the Science Department, gave them an opportunity to display their knowledge and interests. The addition of a new teacher, Mr. Richard Jef- ferys, eased the lead of the department head, Sister Mary Noel. Mr. Jefferys taught all Biology and Science Survey classes. In these courses students be- gan laboratory work and learned the fundamentals of the scientific method. Alternating yearly with Chemistry, Physics was the higher science taught his year. Juniors and seniors utilized lab equipment in performing experi- ments which illustrated scientific principles. New textbooks contained information on recent discov- eries and advancements in science. Concepts of all hi gh school sciences were included in the Senior Science course. Students learned basic principles through experiments and classroom sessions. DOULA peels Junior Physics students Mike Moorman and Paula Venatta set up apparatus for an experiment which demonstrates Archimedes’ Principle. Donald Slusser, Dan Brown, Mike Guyler, and Rick Meyer attempt to determine the fixed points of a thermometer as a project for Senior Science class. see ake ES ae
