The joys of Physics Trial and Error Science is one of the four ma- jor subjects here at River- head High School. There are quite a variety of courses from which you can choose. Some of these are Earth Science. Biology, Chemistry. Physics, Marine Biol- ogy. Forensic Science, and As- tronomy. Students who have taken these courses have expressed many different opinions obout them. Denise Washick feels that Chemis- try with Mr. Dinsmore has been en- joyable because she has learned all about molecular structure and the properties of gradue. Christie Gerinski had this to say: Biology has its good points and its bad points. A very bad point is Mr. Glonz Just kidding. Mr. Glonz!'' On the other hand. Tracy Edwards told us that she loved her Chemis- try teacher. Mrs. Cohen, but she hated the class with a passion! Science is not something to be taken lightly though. Just ask sen- ior valedictorian Craig Gerken He scored a perfect grade of 100 points on both his regents Biology and his regents Chemistry exdms. This year he's trying to do the same on his regents Physics exam, and if he accomplishes this he'll be the first student in R.H.S. history to do so. Good luck Craig! Science tells of the discoveries of the past and the riddles of the present and the future. We are all part of the universe that surrounds us. so we should get involved in it. When you put it that way, it would be hard not to take advantage of the many sciences offered at our school. Go ahead, we're sure you won't be disoppointed!

Academics What comes to mind when you think of school? Is it just the inanimate objects: books, pens, pencils, loose-leaf paper, bind- ers, notebooks, and desks. Or perhaps it's memorizing such things as quotes, dates, names, and places, Other things are probably also on the list like grades, lates, and report cards. Let us not for- get the people who guide us through the hallowed halls and shape our lives forever, our teachers and guidance counselors. School has exposed us to great thinkers and world leaders, to the thoughts and attitudes that have molded history. We have read great novels, plays, and poems, learned of exotic places and people. We learned to play an instrument or maybe how to type Through art you could have seen the legendary paintings and sculptures of the world. It has prepared us for the future Whether you have loved it or hated it you'll have to admit school has changed you.
