Taking time for reflection DISPLAYING POSTERS about their call to uniqueness are freshmen groups at their day of recollection. Waiting for things to happen seems to tai e up much of our time, as sophomores discovered on their day of recollection dur- ing the Advent season. Freshmen centered their day around the idea o( call, viewing a movie about Joseph in the Old Testament and his call to save his people. They studied their own uniqueness and their call to the Scecina community.

A RELIEF MAP of the Exodu.sjourney and a papier mache Moses are religion projects displayed by Sue Davidson and Theresa Ritzi. Christian Awakening was the theme of the seniors three- day retreat. Most seniors said the most powerful experience of the retreat was learning how much others, especially their parents, care for them. The days of recollection for underclassmen were a new ad- dition to the religion program. Seniors helped as leaders and speakers. Special education religion classes centered around scrip ture, personal problems ant group sharing, and celebratioi of special events. Senior Brigit Fisher assisted Miss Lowe witl these classes. Mrs. Myra Larabee, specia education teacher, said the stu- dents came for help in the sub- ject areas of reading, math sci- ence, or social studies, took some electives or requirements with other students. 52 Special education religion

Taking careers into account What's the code word again? The new code word in math- ematics was Apple. A brand new computer of the Apple II series was installed. Mr. Rob Murray instituted the program which was offered to the seniors. I knew the class would help me out in college and it was really fun, commented Luis Mendoza. Jim Sitzman was one of the more enthusiastic students and demonstrated the computer's abilities during open house. Of course the other math classes aided in preparation for college and the world of em- ployment. Studying algebra, trigonom- etry, geometry, and advanced math, students learned to evalu- ate and rearrange quantities until they found an answer. A little bit of math was re- quired in the business depart- ment also. General Business classes were given a special bank project in which students opened accounts, made up rec- onciliations, and organized funds. They also were required to keep an eye on the stock market and note the changes. Among their other activities were the organization of a bud- get, career research, and listen- ing to several speakers in the areas of insurance and serious banking. Advanced shorthand classes were given the opportunity of visiting a business college and finding out the ins and outs. To prepare students so that they have a general knowledge of the business world is our main goal, added Mrs. Wise. BINOMIALS BY GO! paring notes, Trent Shon Zautcke consider a trade. - .
