Mathematicians This year the Mathematics Department has reduced the Geome- try course to a one semester subject followed by one semester of Algebra II. This arrangement permits the student exposure to topics in Algebra II which are believed to be more relevant to the students' needs. Along with the Algebra courses offered, there are Mathematics and Analysis. Analysis is a form of advanced Algebra II. It touches on Calculas and Trigonometry and it requires a background of Algebra I and II along with a teacher's recommendation. When asked about modern mathematics, Mr. Perry stated, It's an improvement over traditional mathematics, but there are still weaknesses to overcome. 24 ABOVE. MR.
