For the first time in several years, Biology II students dissected cats. The cats were chosen because of the similarity between the anatomy of a human and a cat. Tami Abernathy, a senior, said, It didn't bother me to dissect cats. Mr. Partezana taught General Science, Biology I, and Chemistry. In Chemistry students got a hands on approach to many chemicals, some of which were dangerous. Mr. Partezana said, Every precaution is taken when we work with dangerous chemicals.

There will be an extra math course offered in two years for students who have had all the math courses available. Retiring teacher, Mr. Patton, works hard to make this year his best.
