Mathematics DANIEL JANKELUNAS Advanced Algebra Calculus Mathematics Department Chairman That’s odd, I thought this would work out right!” Mr. D. Janke- lunas attempts to solve a difficult problem in one of his math classes. Within the limited time available, our Mathematics Department, under the tutelage of Mr. D. Jankelunas, att empts to give students maximum exposure to the various facets of mathematics. Commencing with Algebra I, offered at the junior high school level, the students progress to Geometry, more Algebra, and later Trigonometry. For more advanced students, the program includes exposure to calculus, while presenting algebra, geometry, and trigonometry in greater depth and at a faster rate. Those students who are oriented in a non-mathematical direction can take courses in General Mathematics, Business Mathematics, Shop Mathematics, or Arithmetic. Further diversity is given to the department by its two electives, offered this year for the first time — Probability and Statistics, and Trigonometry, both half-year courses. By developing the students’ competence with the basic skills of mathematics and stressing its relationship with other disciplines, the mathematics depart¬ ment hopes to prepare students for the application of mathematics to almost every vocation.

Languages ... AMELIA DE LAURO Spanish Foreign Languages Department Chairman MARY BELINA Italian Twirlers JOSEF MANZELLA French Italian Spanish Language is the primary form of communication among men. Speaking a language other than one’s own opens the door to international friendship and understanding. With these goals in mind, the Foreign Language Department offers five languages in Paramus High School, namely, French, Spanish, Italian, German, and Latin. Each course includes not only the language study, but also the culture and history of a particular country. Great stress is placed upon oral expression. In the first year’s study of a language, basic grammar and vocabulary along with the history and culture of the country are covered. Each succeeding year adds in depth to the understanding of the language. By the fourth year, the student is ready to read the famous literature of the language. Language students are exposed to other aspects of the language study other than the classroom. Movies, newspapers, and visits to theaters and restaurants are all utilized to help the student learn the language as well as if he were in the foreign country.
