Students are offered courses That will help channel Them into their prospective goals. Courses offered include: biology and physiology, con- cerned with The phenomena of living organisms, and chemistry and physics, which is concerned with The phe- nomena of non-living substances. The well-equipped labs of MHS provide an environment which encourages further interest in This broadening field of study. Math, one of The oldest forms of education, has be- come more popular due To The fact that industry has demanded more math Technicians. The mathernatic de- partment offers courses in general math, algebra I, ll, plane and solid geometry, Trigonometry, and calculus.
