Mr. students by that grades effort in a in his PSSC Physics Briggs encourages his using his philosophy should be based on course as difficult as physics. The five-year Fairview teacher attempts to make his class material more comprehendable by simplify- ing the confusing aspects of physics so that the average high school stu- dent is able to understand them. 100 Science Department f W M CZ . .. , 4 v H+ f I A , V, .1 , .,,,.w1.,' Lu SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Front Row: Bruce Bush, Wayne Daniels, Robert Carlson.

Cal-Wood: Boulder Valley schools have been granted the use of a facility known as Cal-Wood, which was set aside in a pilot trust. Cal-Wood is a 600- acre stretch of land located in the vicinity of Iamestown, Colorado. Its main purposes are for the preserva- tion of the land and for education. In the fall of 1981, one trip was made to Cal-Wood by Fairview stu- dents in two biology classes. They studied plants on a cold, misty day. Art students used the stretch of land for inspiration for a greeting card contest in which they were entered. The science department at Fairveiw plans to use the Cal-Wood project even more to their advan- tage as new services become avail- able. 111 Greg Hayes, Susie LeMasurier, Carla Bell and Amy Keim were among the students to visil Cal-Wood in the fall semester of this year. 121 The Cal-Wood facilities will include four duplex log cabins and a large log lodge to be ready for use 1une 1. 131 Mr. English's fifth period biology class takes notes in the science lecture hall. 141 Collyn Gelfman works with mice in a science lab. 151 Mrs. Chu helps Susie LeMasurier in biology with a question. 161 Dave Gray stains a plant cell on a slide in biology class. 171 Mr. English collects a bacteria specimen from Mike Scott.
