Understood by Studies in Language Classes Language students explored many different cultures through projects and trips. The Latin class translated Roman passages and did special projects such as Christmas candles and cards written in Latin. Study of Roman theology and making projects pertinent to Roman life were also required. Pinatas and Christmas cards written in Spanish were only a few of the many projects that the Spanish classes undertook. Spanish books were read and reports were written in Spanish.

Complex Techniques Induce Logical Thinking Mathematics are used in every phase of life. Young and old alike are challenged with problems in everyday situations which require logical thinking. Teens at Hauser were able to accomplish these math goals through visual aids and the help of geometric figures. Thus, students became aware that knowledge learned at the present could be applied in the future as well as to their high school career. Students were given a wide selection of subjects in the math department. Teachers, including Mrs. Mabel Utter, Miss Helen Powers, and Mrs. Janet Barnett, provided the guidance and assistance which was needed by junior high and high school pupils alike. Subjects ranging from academic to non-academic courses were offered. Those who desired preparation for college chose algebra,geometry, advanced algebra, and senior math. Students looking for a business career found business arithmetic an aid to them, while those wanting math fundamentals preferred general math as their source for knowledge. Junior high students learned the fundamentals of basic mathematics to aid them in their study. “HANG ’EM high.” says George Curry as he instructs Carol Hoy on how the senior math Christmas decorations should be hung for the front hall showcase. 17 BY GEORGE I’ve got it!” smiles Dale Henderson to himself, while in the background Skip Robertson still contemplates over his problem.
