SCIENCE DEPARTMENT BIOLOGY The Science Department under Mr. Dilley consists of three classes, biol¬ ogy, physics, and senior science. The first two are laboratory sciences with three lecture periods and four lab periods a week. The latter one is a course taught regularly five days a week. DRIVER’S EDUCATION In the biology class, which has 30 pupils, a study is made of the compo¬ sition of cells, plants, animals, and man. Animals are bisected to observe the arrangement of the organs, leaves are collected to make a study of trees. The physics class, having nine pu¬ pils, studies the character of light, sound, heat, metals, and mass. Exper¬ iments are performed to help illustrate the text material. Senior Science, with 26 pupils, studies general science taking in ev¬ erything that a person should know about science. One subject that is not directly con¬ nected with science, but which Mr. Dilley teaches, is drivers’ education. This class lasts one semester and it is to teach students how to drive. It teaches safety along with the driving. This course uses the latest method of teaching by use of motion pictures. PAULINE DILLEY SENIOR SCIENCE Page Thirty-nine
