During this period, which started at 7: 15 and ended at 8:70, the teachers taught two biology courses, one physics course, and two chemistry courses. In response to the need for more science faculty, the school hired Vicki Wendell, Steve Hammack, lohn Caleca, and Dar- ryl Haywood. Mr. MacDonald spent a year in England while Mr. Haywood spent a year here under the auspices of the Fulbright Scholarship Program.
