Our Science Department has seen many changes and improvements through the years; it has undoubtedly grown. Here at St. Al’s the study of life, in all forms, is truly explored. Genetics and Ecology were added to our program last year. To quote last years students. “If you want to be both interested and confused — the Genetics class is just what you need.” Ecology offers the study of both the good and bad aspects of the environment. Anatonmy and Physiology offer an in depth study of physical and chemical processes occurring within the human body. Q. What are the newest additions to the department? A. Zoology and Botany! The study of animal structure is very unique and exciting to the Zoology students. Since this is the first year it has been offered, it proves once more that our Science department is expanding in many ways. Our Botany class is enjoyable and interesting, since plants are becoming a growing interest these days. And don’t forget our Chemistry and Biology classes! Our Science Department, to sum it up, has truly grown and improved with age, from test tubes and bunsen burners to the Metric System and those special blue notebooks!
