MATHEMATICS The technical advances produced through mathematics are exemplihed in the modern mode of living. To gain the proper foundation for advanced mathematics, Mrs. Wilson and Mr. Mitchell taught the eighth graders the fundamentals of mathematics and elementary algebra. The absorbing study of algebra I alld II was enhanced by the interesting manner in which Mr. Wilson presented the course. Learning the patterns of plane figures occupied much of the Sophomore's time. Mr. Keller and Mr. Smith made the course pleasurable by applying their knowledge of plane geometry in the classroom. General mathematics was compulsory for any Senior who had not taken any high school mathematics courses. The study of solid geometry and trigonometry opened new doors to science and engineering careers and taught the students the basis for advanced studies. Mrs. H. Wilson Mr.M. Wilson
