Math-Science Beautify School One of the more active of Fair- field ' s extra curricular activity groups, the Math-Science Club, was kept busy with numerous events in its first year. A constitution was drafted to provide a guideline for future programs. The Math-Science Club was active in helping plan and carry out the local Science Fair. The club spon- sored several Fairfield projects to the Regional Science and Engineer- ing Fair at Bethel College. Fair- field did the best of all participating schools at the Fair. A trip to Cook Nuclear Center in Bridgeman, Mich., enjoyed by many science students, was also spon- sored by the group. 1300 trees were planted in the spring to beautify the school grounds.
