Advanced Math, German Highlight Frosh An advanced progressive math program, headed by Mrs. E. Hoffman and a new arrival to the Language Department are the newest addi- tions to the freshmen's curriculum as it is again proven that the freshmen are always the first to get every opportunity. Under Mrs. Belaew and Mr. Dolikian a new course in German is available for the lirst time at Dondero. Students are responding excellently, and a second year is expected to follow. Another course just starting is a progressive mathematics system in which 38 selected students seek to speed up and get full advantage of all high school math including algebra, geometry and trig- onometry. Lasting for the entire four years, the program is headed by Mrs. Hoffman. Through these opportunities, the inquisitive freshman of today becomes the learned senior of tomorrow.
