Academics Hands and minds struggling to com- prehend all areas of academic studies . Each day students learn more and more f only to realize how much more there is to earn. They find out that our accumulation of knowledge will never end. A t Northern the search for knowledge is made interesting and challenging by the varied curriculum that is offered. A student has the opportunity to select classes that appeal to him. Experienced counselors and deans are on hand to help students make these selections. They are able to recommend classes they feel will be most rewarding to that particular student. Northern ' s well-qualified faculty help students fulfill their search for knowledge. Teachers constantly strive to make classes interesting and challenging to the abilities of all stu- dents. They encourage students to ques- tion what they don ' t understand and try to discover answers. Although a student ' s knowledge covers a wide area by the time he completes his high school years, he realizes that education will not stop here. His life will be filled with many more learning experiences but with what he has gained here he is prepared to face the future. 16
