Classes prepare Neumann students The college preparatory classes here at Neumann really helped me in college classes. The note taking in Biology and reading assignments prepared me well for campus classes. One former Neumann graduate made this com- ment after two years at college. Neumann may not offer wide variety of classes but the classes they do offer really do a good job. The teachers at Neumann are in a class by themselves. They under- stand how active the students are and take into consideration the students' busy lives. The teachers balance out large homework assign- ments and leave plenty of time for students to do the best job possible. Students make time for academics although extra-curricular activities ore stressed a lot ot Neumann. Students realize that academics will get them through college and future life. 20 Academics Division

Field trips enliven science Field trips ore o fun and interesting part of any science class. The practical science and ad- vanced biology students uuent on a field trip to the University of Nebraska at Omaha Medical Center. Here the students uuere informed about different careers available in the medical fields. Later they toured the Respiratory Therapy Center where they learned about the different diseases of the lungs. Next the group ventured to the Gross Anatomy Laboratory uuhere they received a lecture on the heart and different muscle groups. The students uuere able to observe the uuork done on a cadaver. Junior Jim Noonan, a practical science student, said, I thought it uuas kind of eerie. To finish off the learning experience, the students uuent out to eat at Valentinos. First year teacher Mr. Sob LUolfe instructed the biology, ad- vanced biology and introductory to physical science classes. Both biology classes took a lot of lecture notes from the overhead projector. Biology students dissected insects and fish uuhile the Advanced Biology students dissected o fetal pig and o couu heart. Physics, instructed by Ms. Mary Sydik, uuas o class in uuhich seniors leorned about the behavior and properties of light ond energy. Both the physics ond chemistry students did o lot of experiments uuhich pertained to the lectures that they hod received. Freshmen uuere required to take half of o year of I.P.S. ond half o year of health which uuas instructed by Mr. Bob Choduuick. I.P.S. dealt uuith the basic principles of science uuhile Health stressed physical uueil being. Ms. Sue Honsen Instructed the practical science class. 22 Rooms 11 12
