lvlathematics. . . making it all add up AQ' it The Paradise Valley Math depart- ment offers courses ranging from Gen- eral Math to calculus. Each class is designed to strengthen the mathemati- cal ability of each student. Starting next year all entering fresh- man will be required to take three years of math to graduate. A movement away from classroom paper work to mechanical and com- puter work is being emphasized. What I would like to see is that the district could afford calculators and computer terminals for each student's use, said Mr. Mac Haynie, math department chairman.

Social Studies . History in the mek' ng 1 iw. Augie zito Mr w .lll am Farrell Mr Pat Llndmark Mrs Mildred Penis D epan ment Chairman The objective of the Social Stud- ies Department is the focus on the major roles through which most young peo- ple and adults participate in the social world - citizen, worker, consumer, family member, friend, member of social groups and self. Social studies can help young people under- stand, value and function creatively and competently in these roles and thereby assist them to become effective partici- pants in our soci- ety. Success in this endeavor would, in my opin- ion, fulfill the role of the Social Stud- ies Department, said Mr. Augie Zito, department chairman. The Social Studies Depart- ment had many guest speakers this year from such places as Planned Parent- hood, Alcoholics Anonymous, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Phoenix Police Depart- ment. 72 Mr. Pat Lind- mark writes up his lesson plans for the week. Erica Storms, Senior, dis- cusses an assignment with Mr. Fleif- enrath.
