Lawrence High School - Red and Black Yearbook (Lawrence, KS)

Page 10 text:

There have been many changes in the faculty in the past few years. The number of teachers at the high school has expanded with the growing needs of the students and the community. Today, participating in workshops, speaking at state meetings, and taking courses to keep up with the modern trend take up much of a teachers outside time. Members of the English depart- ment experimented this year with ability grouping: in the social science and mathematics department, the accelerated program has been in effect for two years. Science teachers, aware of their sudden importance in the modern age, have experimented with new methods in their classes. The counseling staff has been enlarged to accomodate more students. At Lawrence High, the faculty sets the pace for change. 6
