Samual T. Rhodes, Sgt. Walter Slayden, Sgt. A. W. Lamb, Sgt. James Thomas. The math department is one of the most important in our school. Everyone has to have at least one type of math before graduating, and most students try to have three or four. We have a very complete math department offer- ing all stages of college prepara- tory math, including business and general math, beginners and ad- vanced algebra, plane and solid geometry and trigonometry. dh if The R.O.T.C. unit is an integral part of our school program. Our unit has been a credit to Lee by maintaining an honor rating and instilling in our students traits of character, leadership and dis- cipline. Capt. Samual T. Rhodes, the PlVlS8zT, is ably assisted by Sgts. Slayden, Lamb and Thomas. Sgt. Slayden is retiring this year after many contributive years at Lee.
