Mr. Reedy, new to the school this year, helped students in the Special Education Program.

Gut With The Old And In With The New Something old-something new, the perfect description of the Science Department this year as the old rooms and facilities provided housing for new books, teaching methods, and students. A school requirement of one year of science must be completed by each student. General and advanced science provided the students with knowledge from electricity to weights and measurements. The students interested in plant and animal life usually stepped into the science of life, biology, in which dissection of worms, frogs, grasshoppers, and fish was not uncommon. The mathematically inclined student might have preferred chemistry, in which a new method called Chem Study was used. More advanced students chose physics in which their chemistry knowledge became useful. Careful weighing, measuring, and mixing was the well-known lab law for chemistry students Ray Darrah, Mickey Coffman, and Don Capozzo. ROBERT GLENN BS., M.A, General Math and Science, Fresh.
