Mathematics • • • Mr. Daniel T. Jankelunas Mathematics Department Chairper¬ son; Math Lab, Advanced Place¬ ment Math Guided by Mr. Daniel Jankelunas, department Chairperson, the Mathematics program is stronger than ever. In order to help students who wish to improve their basic skills, the Math Lab Program has been extensively improved. Computer Science classes have also expanded in order to meet the growing de¬ mands of students interested in pursuing careers in the com¬ puter field. Encompassing many levels and areas of study, course offerings range from three-semester Algebra and Geometry classes to the Advanced Placement Mathematics program. Plans for the future include a combined Math and Science program for students with learning disabilities, and possible minimum skills requirements for graduation. Housed in the busy Math Study Center, where students can receive extra help and use the two computer terminals, the Mathematics depart¬ ment continues to display one of the strongest and most vital educational programs of Paramus High School.

Anderson Biology, Horticulture Fishing Club Anne Lucille Behr Advanced Chemistry, Chemistry Mrs. Beverly Rose Ann Caccavale Advanced Biology, Marine Science, Bio-Medical Techniques Joann T. Garbarino Chemistry, Advanced Chemistry In order to help students meet the challenging demands of the science field, Paramus High School’s Science department offers a wide range of courses encompassing the fundamental and advanced levels of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, as well as programs in Horticulture, Marine Biology, Nutrition, and Earth Science. Classroom work is supplemented by laboratory experiments which provide the students with first-hand ex¬ perience in the practical application of scientific principles. In their freshman year, students are given the opportunity to begin an academic career oriented toward science, which will enable them to take advantage of the advanced placement levels of Biology, Chemistry, and perhaps in the near future, Physics. Under the supervision of Mr. Gervase Castner, Chairperson, the Science department contains a dedicated staff whose mem¬ bers are genuinely interested in preparing the students for en¬ trance into the scientific world.
