In developing a curriculum for a modern high school The Board of Education, Administrators and teachers must constantly be on the alert so that courses are provided to meet the needs of our graduates in a changing world. During the past few years the question has been asked, With the coming of the atomic age, with people demanding that high school students in America be given better science training, will it be necessary to change our science programs materially? The answer is this: The main purpose of teaching science in our high schools is to give the students a basic understanding of the funda- mental principles of science. Since this has been the chief objective in the past, there is no rea- son for any radical changes in our high school science program. The laws of gravity, speed of sound and light, content of matter and other science facts have not changed because of the atomic age, nor have mathematical formulas changed. If the high school graduate has a good knowledge of the subject matter offered in science and mathematics in the typical American high school, he is in a good position to make a career in any science field. The reason we in America are not producing the scientists which we are capable of producing is not lack of opportunity but that American high school students tend to steer away from the more challenging courses in higher mathematics and science, with a small minority of the top students meeting the challenge of the more difficult courses. To help meet the needs of our country in science, it will be necessary for parents, students, counselors and administrators to work to- gether so that the rich store of potential science material in our country is developed.
