Mrs. Snyder is a member of the math department. She is teaching computer for the first time this year. Mrs. Stewart one of G. V. ' s new P. E. instructors, takes a delight in teaching coed gym. She also doubles as the girls ' gynmastic coach. The Fourth Dimension Mr. Snyder is one of Great Valley ' s more unusual teach- ers. He is the kind of teacher you will tell your kids about twen- ty years later. He is usually working on some philosopical prob- lem in the back of his mind. As you walk into his class he ' ll say, I ' ve almost grasped the fourth dimension, and proceed in a lengthy, complex, and detailed explanation most of which will be far beyond your capacity for understanding. As he would say on the fringes of human thought . The most enjoyable part of Mr. Snyder ' s class is often the tangents he explores. In his Philosophical Writing class one day he went from the inherent inconsistency of sin to time-travel paradoxes, A fantastic story teller, he will sit on the desk in the front of his room, drinking tea from his therm- os, and recount the latest exploit of his baby son Joshua This year Mr. Snyder spent many hours planning and in- structing the new seminars for gifted students. He deserves thanks for this and many other things he ' s done for students at Great Valley. Academics 103
