And Arithmetic MRS. VIVIAN MC DONALD Home Economist I-IV MR. L. J. SLANE Chemiffry P123 :ict MATHEMATICS Mathematics is an important high school course because it teaches one principles and fundamentals he will use all his life. Whether it is the student who takes mathematics one year and uses it for checking his bills, or the student who takes mathematics for eight years and uses it for building bridges, both benefit highly from ,mathematics It teaches one to observe, reason, apply formulas, and solve problems in a logical manner, The language of science is mathematics and without it there would be very little science. The sci- entist needs mathematics, not only to solve his problems, but also to see and weigh the facts carefully before making any statements or conclusion. As you can see, this is just a short summary of some on the many benefits mathematics gives a persong but just from these short statements one can see how important mathematics is to the world.

Our courses, three required and one recommended, include study of the structure of individual words as well as the language as a whole, the development of vocabulary, and increased emphasis on reading, for comprehension and appreciation.
