Sputnik, the world did sit up and take notice. This revolutionary little ball of instruments helped bring about an unparalleled emphasis on science. Educators every- where now see the need for advanced science courses in schools. Much has already been done in our schools to meet the challenge of modem society to produce minds able to cope with its complex problems. Ft. Lauderdale High is doing its part to step up science education and to encourage more students to take science courses. In the biology section, the advanced classes place more emphasis on detail. Stress is placed on the plant and animal kingdoms and their relationship to man. These classes study extensively the structure of the human body and latest research discoveries in the field of medicine. Extra reading, notebooks, projects, and research papers are among the requirements in advanced biology. Mel Atkinson Applied Science Yele University. BA. Blench Bexenos Biology Robert C.
