Facing The Future By Gretchen Beck HWithin the subject of mathematics there is a two fold purpose, to prepare students for college entrance, and to train them for the vocational world,', stated Mrs. Turpin. And with an excel- lent Math Department such as Poway High School's these purposes were alot- ted to the students. Mr. Gibby remarked '4We have one of the strongest Math De- partments in the county. The teachers' ability to prepare students definitely could be seen in the Advanced Place- ment Tests that were given, in which ninety percent of the students passed. A new course in mathematics was add- ed this year. The course was called Inter- mediate Algebra. This course was sug- gested to be taken after Geometry, al- lowing the students to concentrate on the heavy advanced stages of Algebra, without having to go into Trigonometry. New teachers as well were added this year. Mr. Elrod and Mr. Koelzer brought the total number of math teachers up to eighteen. And not only did Poway High School's Math Department add a new class, as well as new teachers, it prepared students for a life after high school.
