Having more honor classes gave students the choice of a challenge. More students were getting serious about their college educations and more par- i ents were encouraging their kids to set higher goals. More students want to learn and we ' be glad to offer more honor classes to the students. In fact, we try to offer a little more to encourage them to achieve excellence, stated Assistant Principal Ron Needham.

pgraded education 1 Can you imagine being stuffed into a Science class with 36 students? That used to be the feeling until this year when more Science classes came into operation to accomodate more stu- dents. Since graduation require- ments had changed, more Science classes were need- ed, and the demand for more had risen. The advan- tage of having more rooms was that teachers now had adeguate lab facilities in which to teach their stu- dents. Students had different opinions when they heard they needed more credits to graduate. Well, I have to take the class anyway, since I ' m a college prep student, stated Jill Spiekerman. Most science teachers felt increasing credits was good for students. Science is a pervasive reality of our own modern world; we are influ- enced, increasingly, each day of our lives, stated sci- ence teacher, Terrance Shaw.
