CADEMICS Life r Hi h School Afte Q 54 Acaahaau Academics: not just a state of the mind. Additional computers and new teachers brought new color to the aca- demic world. Rising sophomores faced the challenge of the exit exam before graduating. History classes cultured students with trips to Philadelphia and San Francisco. Students learned on an individual level from A.P. to practical. With several courses, such as Latin and word processing added to the curriculum this year, students be- came well-rounded through the aca- demic program. Whether vocational, business, the arts, or sciences, each tal- ent was equally important. Mrs. Hen- drix said that the mutual concern the parents, teachers, and students shared wove all pursuits together. The pro- gram strove to prepare students for life after high school.
