4 Flae Ellis, Sharon Blincoe, Michelle Loflin, and Lane Perry measure the weight of the graduated cylinder in order to weigh liquids in Introduction to Physical Science. We got the basics in Introduction to Physical Science to help us in later specialized physical science and biology classes. we ...mf dv'-f v ua- 4' '3Q'54-'iaf' -A X Y, MP5-rltl. ,yeii , ii.. . . X K To Examine Qur World xamining the things around us and experimenting to observe processes was what Lanier's science was all about. From analyzing the grass in our backyard, conjuring up a batch of lipstick, or constructing an atom, to learning how our body functions, science taught us to look beyond what we already knew and to question what was taken for granted. Variety played an important part in structuring our freshman and sophomore science program. Specialized classes like Sound and Light and Household Chemistry taught us how to make cameras out of shoeboxes and mix our own cold cream, expos- ing us to the complexity of the simple things ol lite. Switching the previous requirement of one year to two, sopho- mores fit biology classes like Diversity of Plants and Animals ,id The Study ot the Human System into their schedules. We dissected worms and frogs, studied flowers under microscopes, and raised our own plants in a garden in the little courtyard. Those planning to take chemistry took Atoms and Molecules and Microbiology to get basics in chemical bonds, formulas and reactions, Basic health courses, required to graduate, had variety within the courses. We learned about health centers in our community and the jobs available. Mental disorders, viruses, communicable diseases and their symptoms were memorized. Coach Masch's memoriza- tion techniques aided his students in learning the fundamentals. With a test every day they remembered the necessary information through repetition, Different teachers taught in their own ways stressing different things. Coach l-locker had his classes keep track of what they ate, then evaluated the nutritional contents. We began to see the world around us in a different light and applied what we learned to every day life. We read ingredients labels, knowing what substances would be the most nutritional. We knew now why things happened and could explain things better, with more accuracy, Science gave us a head start on the unknown. We knew there was a cause behind every effect. ,, -A x science 103

Many labs like these gave us first hand information to work with in the textbook labs, D l 3 Caretully measuring each drop, Don Kennedy and Lisa Penny work on the acid and base experiment in Household Chemistry. Once the basics were taught, we learned what really went into the everyday things around us like cold cream, lipstick, and candy.
