Science Courses Prove Challenging . ' 'ti Eg- Mr. Block and Carol Brose produce hydrogen by using the water displacement method Under microscopes and in test tubes the wonders of God's creation are studied by student scientists. Textbooks, teachers, tests, field trips, and laboratory experiments aid them in gaining more knowledge in the areas of science. Young biologists and chemists explore the actual com- ponents of nature. In the biology lab forms of life ranging from bacteria under microscopes to pigs in dissecting pans are encountered. Chemistry is concerned with the natural elements and how they react and combine with each other. Pupils in physics and physical science combine science and math as they solve problems and relate the results to their own lives. In keeping with the growing impor- . . H tance of science ln the space age, Luther- ggfggfk an High offers a complete and interesting science program. David Hart M.A. -25- George Kieffer M.S.
