Special Ed, Math Enhance Students ' v Providing Northview students with help, in formation an d encouragement were the Spe- cial Education and the Math Departments. One department where the students learned to apply their knowledge to everyday situations was the Special Education Depart ment. This course offered all the traditional subjects in all levels which suited each stu dent ' s individual needs. Math is one of the most important subjects on campus because it prepares Northview students for the duties of the future such as handling the family budget and balancing checkbooks. Many levels of classes were of fered ranging from basic math to calculus. Both of these areas offered a variety of classes which gave the students information to apply to their daily lives.

Expertise In Singing, Performing The choral department, one of the more demanding sections in school, was conducted by Mr. Lindsey and pianist, Mrs. Harwick. In this department, students learned to use and develop their singing talent to the best of their abilities. They also developed different vocal skills and learned to cooperate as a group. Besides the original Viking Concert Choir, a group of more experienced singers could join the Madrigals. To be in Madrigals, students had to know how to sight read music, display good tonal quality and be responsible. In Mad- rigals, students sang all types of music, but mainly concentrated on contemporary and classical pieces. Both Madrigals and Viking Concert Choir performed together at other schools (where they were able to display their talents). Be- sides performing at other schools, they put on festivals during winter and spring and also performed at the Baccalaureate. Both Madrigals and Viking Choir performed together at other schools, especially junior high schools in the district where (while dis- playing their own talents) they hoped to inter- est younger students in joining choir.
