Bobby Ward gels extra help from Mr. Myers on the structure of an atom. CHEMISTRY PROVIDES MASSIVE CHALLENGES A great deal of studying and work went into Mr. Gaskin’s and Mr. Myers' science classes. Seniors struggled with organic chemistry and physics, while juniors attacked first-year chemistry. First-year chemistry was divided into traditional and advanced studies. This provided a greater challenge for those planning careers in science. Those students interested in other fields were encouraged to take physical science. The aim of the department was to prepare the students for college, both in theory and laboratory skills. Janora Roberts swiftly but carefully completes one of the more difficult labs for chemistry. 21
