They also teach students how to cooperate with others and most important — team spirit! Mr. Koelinger taught Boys ' P.E. for his third year. Miss Hoppmann taught Girls ' P.E. for her first year.

For a begin ner, this can be awfully scary! But with thi help of Mr. Kettner, Mr. Hermann, and Mr Sloan, things were made such easier. The students studied their textbooks an( driving manuals daily, learning to drive defen sively and — always be on the lookout for th( other guy. All this studying was put to the test at 3:00 p.m. daily, when two students at i time would get a chance to drive with eithe. Mr. Hermann or Mr. Sloan. Each individua was then evaluated on his or her driving abilities. Through Driver ' s Ed., each student learns how to be a safe and responsible driver. Mr. Sloan turns over the keys to Driver ' s Ed. graduate Tina Renner. 60

Numbers, Numbers, Numbers . . . Ma+hema+lcs and Computers Math at Lutheran High School is challenging, exciting and varied. Courses range from General Math, to Trigonometry, to Pre-Calculus, to Computer Programming. Mr. Achterberg, the head of the department, taught Algebra 11, Trig, and Pre-CalcuTus. Miss Timm taught General Math and Algebra I, ana Mr. Vanderhyde instructed Geometry and Computer Program- ming. This year, many new com- puters were added to what was already in the computer room, giv- ing us a total of 18.
