MX-4-Y:1 This and many other phrases are often repeated during the year in the courses of mathematics taught at N.H.S. Classes range from the simplest mathe- matics to the most difficult problem in solid geometry. Business mathematics solves the mysteries of per cents or the problems that arise in everyday business life. Algebra I and II Cover the uses of formulas, signed numbers, and exponents. Graduating to more difficult branches of mathematics, students take plane geo- metry. Rounding out the program, solid geometry and trigonometry are offered. These courses are invaluable to future engineers and for those who plan to go into higher mathematics. CLAIQDE GILSON JOHN HILL BOB McCLINTOCK ELOISE P,-kT'I'ERSON M. P'
