Chamberlain High School joined the ranks of B after having been an A school for the past sixteen years. This classi- fication was for state tournaments and af- fected our regular season schedules very little. School boards throughout the state, including our own, voted down a football playoff. Students needing medical attention found Mrs. Eleanor Heesch, the county nurse, available every Tuesday morning. And at a special clinic about 190 high school students received immunizations re- quired by state law. The distributive educa- tion program was dropped from the cur- riculum because of the late resignation of the teacher and no replacement was avail- able. The 190 day calendar avoided the making up of the record 7Vi snow days.

y = mx + b is a common equation seen on the chalk hoard in the Algebra I classroom. The freshmen are required to take either Algebra I or General Math, and after that, may take electives of Geometry, Algebra II or Advanced Math. Geometry explores the world of proofs of theorems. Algebra II, a continued course of Algebra I, reviews x's and y's, but with the use of newfangled calculators and constructive minds, the students have no trouble. Mrs. Lois Kaltsulas and Mark Budahl were the teachers in this department. Mrs. Kaltsulas also taught one class of seventh grade math. UPPER LEFT: Mrs. Lois Kaltsulas. UPPER RIGHT: Mark Budahl.
