MATH Enrollment Up Enrollment is up in all levels of math, commented Mr. Barry Jahn, math teacher. We have kids staying in our classes for a full year, which is rare in our program, he added. “One of our major goals is to make math an enjoyable learning experience, and I believe we've reached it in our lower level classes, he concluded. Mr. Bob Kenyon and Mr. Paul Olliff (in charge of advanced math) were quoted as saying, “One of our major goals is to have the students really get their noses to the grind stone, and learn this material, and get a good algebra background as part of a more complete educational background.” Math again relied on extensive use of charts, graphs, projections, models and teacher demonstration in attempting to break down the communication barriers and focus on practicality. 1: Burt Graber solves an equation with two unknowns In Algebra II. 2: Mike Haas works eagerly with Mr. Barry Jahn, teacher. 3: Mr. Paul Ollift. 4: Mr. Bob Kenyon. 5: Mr. Barry Jahn. 14 Math
