Class competition is alive both in the gym and on the field. Winter sports include volleyball, floor hockey, and self defense. In the spring students take to the field for track and softball.

Students planning to at¬ tend college need mathematical skills to major in a wide range of fields. College entrants who ex¬ pect to major in such fields as en¬ gineering, economics, pre-med, computer science, or the natural sciences need an advanced math¬ ematics course as preparation for calculus. Required courses alge¬ bra and geometry, taught by Mrs. Sawtelle, prepare students for ad¬ vanced math and computer courses taught by Mr. Garcia and Mr. Dewitt. Students are able to learn essential mathematics for everyday living such as consum¬ er, business, and technical appli¬ cations. Basic algebra and geom¬ etry courses provide a thorough introduction to the courses for a better understanding of the mate¬ rial.
