Therefore, ne Science Department believes in teaching the student the scientific facts, techniques, and skills used in solving scientific problems. Courses are offered for both the college bound and voca- tional students with both college preparatory and gen- eral science classes. New courses that were offered this year are Enriched College Chemistry and Enriched College Physics. These courses were developed to challenge the advanced stu- dents by increasing the amount of labwork and offering a more indepth understanding of the subjects. This summer, the Science Department hopes to open a workshop to develop a more advanced Physics or Chem- istry course for the 1981-1982 school year. Kamikaze Kameron Stephen J.

Relevancy is their goal At Seekonk High School, Mathematics is an integral part of the curriculum. The department treats mathe- matics as both an art and a science: they strive to teach both the aesthetic and practical aspects of math through a variety of courses geared to several levels of ability. The Mathematics Department emphasizes versatility, teaching highly accelerated courses such as Calculus I and II as well as the basics such as Elements of Math I and II. | The primary goal that the department hopes to Thomas H. Sullivan, Jr., B.A..

Student participation in the program is not a problem since many students show a willingness to get involved with advanced exploration. As the department always tries to meet the students’ needs, they hope to offer a computer programming course in the future. “J a NG ae se : i ES E “a afer hy r . Robert C.
