Students talk about studying Biology was Ifterftost difficult sub- ject for manV LHS) students. Ac- cording to junibf-Annette Geffre, Biology is hardest because there is a lot of reading. You need to study a lot of little details and know them well ' Senior Jodi Schauer disagreed. Math is, because I don't like it and I never seem to understand what I am doing. I can never catch onto the concepts ' she added. Students said they study any- where from 15 minutes to 10 hours an average week. The students agreed they spend the most time studying English. Senior Mary Kallas stated, In Eng- lish you have to know a lot of the details in the stories. Rhonda Reis prepared for tests by reading over the material that she had to study from. I go back and study until I feel I know it well enough. Most students had advice about study habits for incoming fresh- men. Kristy Schaible said, If you think you can breeze right on through high school without studying, you'll most likely be in for a rude awakening. v V V J English teacher Mrs. Julie George helps sophomore Benjie Arioso write a speech outline 18 Academics
