It is found through the earliest known records ol' ancient history that man, in his everyday life, made use of the idea of the number. An extraordi- nary amount of mathematical calcu- lations was needed forthe construction ofthe pyramids and other architectur- al achievements. At first, their symbols were simple and few, but as man progressed so did his knowledge of numbers. Man devel- oped a crude manner ol' counting which slowly advanced into what is now a highly developed mathematical system. The Mathematics Department pro- vided a broad curriculum in order to develop the students' skills one-step-at a-time. lt began with junior high Gen- eral Math and progressed each year to Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Math 12.

Advrses in Cheerleading Stu dent Council The Business Department was ben- eficial in the respect that students were able to apply their high school skills immediately after graduation. Courses in Shorthand I and II, Book- keeping I and II, Office Practice, and Typing were offered to prepare stu- dents by simulating actual office-type situations in which the students posed as employees of corporations. Business Law and Business Math were used to accentuate the program by acquainting students with contracts, different types of insurance, and invoices. Personal Typing dealt mainly with how to typewrite manuscriptsg General Business, fan introduction to the dif- ferent aspects ofthe business curric- ulumj was concerned primarily with the college bound, non-business major, who was interested in learning the fundamentals.

They are deeply interested in help- ing students to gain as much knowledge in their particular field of science as possi- ble. The junior high students were introduced to science with biologically and physically oriented classes. The ninth grade general science course covered the phys- ical and chemical sciences as a preparation for advanced study. Earth Science, as the name implies, involved the study of all naturally occurring phenomena. Biology in- troduced students to life 's functions, from unicellular to multicellular organisms. Chemistry was the science concerned with matterg the changes it underwent and the laws governing those changes. Physics dealt with matter and the transformation of matter and energy.
