£cieMC aw Math M M any students took advantage iWu of the excessive science fwl courses offered at Rainier High. These courses dealt with all as- pects of the science field from fresh- man physical science to sophomore bi- ology to the electives of chemistry and physics. Lab experements were an important part of all of these classes. They gave students a hands-on experience as well as a better understanding of the subjects being studied. II. . . , hen are we ever going to use this? , seemed to be a classic common complaint at Rainier High School math depart- ment. All complaints aside, many stu- dents found math to be a very useful subject to have taken when enrolling in other math related subjects such as chemistry, personal finance, and busi- ness lab.

rhere were three different bands at Rai- nier: stage band, concert and marching band, and pep band. Each of the three played its own style of music. Stage band was the smallest group and played jazz and funk music. Concert and marching band played in parades, competed with other schools in com- petitions, gave concerts, and performed at football games. Pep band also played at school activities such as football games, basketball games, and assemblies. Sometimes the pep band played for the school choir when they gave concerts. The concert and marching band went to places such as Pasco, Washington, Mount Hood Community College, and Clark College, to play in competitions and parades. In April they won the fight to compete at the State Band Contest in Eugene. Stage band also competed in contests. The band took part in a Jazz Night at The Columbia Theatre to raise money for different projects. Not the same set of students played in all three bands. Some played in all three, but most just played in one or two.
