MR. LOWELL RICKY Mr. Gordon Spencer, biology teacher, gives the day's lesson while students catch important points taken from the book and further explained in the lecture. MR. JOHN LYNCH Science Classes Stress Individual Progress Before leaving class, Alan Urick checks a particular point brought up in the physics lesson with Mr. David Hall. Through group instruction, laboratory experiments, and individual projects, the science department attempts to offer a wide variety of experiences to its stu- dents. Classes in biology, chemistry, phys- ics, and conservation are offered to sci- ence students, and an electronics course is available to those students interested in electrical work. Under the guidance of Mr. David Hall, electronics students work on lighting for school plays and other auditorium pro- ductions. Just as other science students, they often work after school on inde- pendent experiments. Mr. John Lynch introduced a new angle to the teaching of biology with his ex- periments in microphotography. 25
