Role In BHS Students 9 Future L Mr. Ellinghouse is pleased as a stu- dent gives a correct answer to a problem. Today math and science are becoming more and more important. In this mechanical world they are indispensable factors in its progress. Math and science occupy an important place in a high school student's course of study. After high school both will be needed more and more to meet not only problems in industry and in the business world but also to meet the daily needs of everyone. BHS is proud of its math and science programs which cover a large area of study. Three teachers interested in the progress of math and science at BHS are Mr. Kenneth Beers, who teaches math 7, Mr. Gene Ellinghouse, who instructs algebra I and math 7 and 8, and Mr. Kenneth Morris, who teaches science 7 and 8 and general math. Working hard planning his math and science program is Mr. Morris. Mr. Beers pauses while re- cording test scores of his sev- enth grade math students. Students of eighth grade math listening intently to their teacher, Mr. Elling- house, are Bob Cooksey, Bill Notbohn, Marilyn Frankey, Ruth Kemp, Marilyn Hol- mann, Pat Matheny, Pat Har- rigan, jim Allen, Fred Bon- durant, Don Thompson, jim Smith, Bob Kuntz, jim Hop- kins, Butch I u s t , Randy Swinney, and Bill Ernest.
