Math club, JETS group work jointl Although they were two separate groups, Mu Alpha Theta and JETS held most of their meetings together and traveled together on their end of the year trip to the Dallas-Ft. Worth area. Mu Alpha Theta, the math honor society, participated in the Texas State Math League competition and was rated as one of the top competing schools in Texas. As a fundraiser Mu Alpha Theta members sold locker organizers, shelf units designed to fit in- to student lockers. Members also sold candy to help with the expenses of the spring trip. JETS, the Junior Engineering Technical Society, sold candy as a fundraiser and the money was used to provide scholarships and to help pay for the spring trip. JETS members also at- tended the State JETS conference at Texas A8nM University in March. The Spring trip included a visit to the Botanical Gardens and the Omni Theatre in Ft. Worth as well as a side trip to Six Flags Over Texas.

1 ln., '15 'F 5' 3 N-U' Zaiontz, computer math teacher, stands ready to assist any student a question. Big move in store for Math-Science Working under less than ideal conditions-floating from room-to-room and shar- ing space with other teachers-was made some what more bearable for members of the math and science departments as they made plans for a move into their own building next year. In the math department a total of five new teachers were hired. There were not any new classes added this year, however, a different kind of computer math class was offered. Taught by math teacher Tom Foster, the class focused on Pascal rather than the standard Basic and provided a challenge for the advanced computer students. UI really like it! It has so much more appeal than basic,', said Foster. In the science department, there were also five new teachers hired. This year a new Advanced Placement Biology fBiology ID was add- ed and taught by Tom Taylor . As Taylor commented on the class, i'It's very in- teresting because you get to study more advanced things than you can in Biology I. Despite the crowded condi- tions throughout the year, both departments continued to progress and enlarged their curriculum while an- ticipating the move into their own building next year. Trina Hunn, junior, dissects her shark in Tom Taylor 's second period ad- vanced placement biology lBiology ID so that she can examine its internal structure. Computer math students spent many extra hours before and after school because access to the school computers was limited. Bryan Moravits, senior, works on his final project for computer math. i- X.
