Library ... Fabric of Fables Mr. A1 DeFilippo Librarian Mrs. Rose S. Nemeth Library Secretary Mrs. Virginia Zeisler Library Secretary Mrs. Betty Kramer Librarian “Our ‘Newest’ Librarian?” Mr. J. Mohrhardt, our new media coordinator, surveys a part of his ‘domain.’ Quite naturally, the center of learning, re¬ searching, and studying at Paramus High School is the library. Here students have available over 18,000 volumes, some 200 magazines, tapes, and related materials. Completing the library’s re¬ sources are our two librarians, Mr. B. Kramer and Mr. A. DeFilippo, who are always available for assistance and guidance. In addition to being a place to research term papers and projects, the library is also a place to go any time before, during, or after school hours for recreational reading pleasures. Besides having the works of many great past and present authors, the library also subscribes to many popular and informational newspapers. At the beginning of each year, the librarians have an orientation program for the sophomores. This is to help the students to become aware of all the facilities that the library has to offer everyone, no matter where his individual interests may lie.

Network of Numbers Mr. Thomas J. McGuire Algebra I Geometry Mr. Marius J. Nardelli Math and Science Substitute Chess Club Mr. George W. Mockel Geometry Algebra I Arithmetic IV Mrs. Lucette M. Russo Geometry Advanced Algebra and Trigonometry Modern Introductory Analysis Math League Co-Adviser Mr. Richard Tennant Advanced Geometry Algebra II Election Committee Mathematics is a network of interwoven numbers, providing a logical basis of reasoning for the future. Fulfilling this basis are new facilities and a wide selection of courses offered by the Mathematics department. This year a new study center opened providing students with a place to do their homework. Tutoring and remedial work are done in this center; serving also as a computer terminal, students may take mini-courses on computer programming. One may have an introduction to the computer in seven lessons, after school, or during his or her study period. For the student who wants to pursue an area further, the center is the place to do independent studies. Books and a multitude of other mathe¬ matical materials are available for research. Extra help is also available every period. It is evident that this new addition to the math department is a beneficial one for all. Preparing students for the future are a variety of courses, both traditional and innovative. Ranging from Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus, and Business Math to Computer Programming and Probability and Statistics a wide gamut is offered. Every year, Mr. D. Jankelunas’s Mathematics department fulfills the needs of the students and prepares them for the future.
