 For those students who plan on having careers in the medical field, biology, chemistry, physics, or any area related to the sciences, the science curriculum and those on the teaching staff are of great importance. The science classes are finally getting harder. Instead of using the same book as Chemistry I, Advanced Chemistry is using the same book as the college freshmen at Purdue. The classes are preparing me partially for the classes I have to take at college, but the lack of labs due to the lack of resources will hurt me, commented one graduating senior who plans to major in Biology or Pre-Med. I think the Biology department is pretty well advanced. The Chemistry Department, though, is kind of limited; we don't do very many labs. The Biology section of the Science Department has a lot, and it's going to have more, but that sort of leaves the Chemistry section behind, said junior Benjy Lien. Students have recognized the improvements in curriculum, but they also recognize that no matter how good the curriculum may be, without good teachers who are willing to sacrifice their time to insure that their students receive what they need, the curriculum is wasted. Mr. Stearns is always willing to help me. He always provides information from the book as well as his own resources. He approaches problems from many angles in order to meet the needs of the individual students, said senior Lisa Hanner. Teaching style and curriculum have brought us into the future, preparing us for what lies ahead. Junior Aaron Baldwin says, Mr. | Langell, that's ridiculous! I Homework! Never heard of such a | thing! Freshman Tim Fowler listens attentively to Mr. Makurat in hopes of getting an A . «WW The teachers are wonderful here because they give each student personal attention. However the curriculm of the college prep courses could be changed to better prepare students for material they will face in college. I suggest that we look at the math curriculm of other schools where SAT math scores are higher. Perhaps we can add to our present program, said senior Lisa Hanner. SB Ninth
