In this Atomic Age, the importance ot the physical sciences is increasing daily. This department at SI-IS, by keep- ing up with the latest developments in each tield ot scientitic work, has proved of interest to all our students. From Freshman General Science to Senior Chemistry, there is a branch ot science tor every student. By striking a proper balance between recitation and lab pe- riods, the science teachers always man- age to keep their classes interesting and intormative. Eight

But its other goal -to develop in us alert, selective, thinking minds- is no less practicable. We are all better, more well-rounded citi- zens because ot our experiences in Social Science classes. World History and United States History are required courses. Seniors have a choice ot Geography, Economics, Problems, or Civics. Mr. Lenard Grote is a new member of the Social Science Department this year.

Nine The Mathematics department offers four years of mathematics to students at Spring- field High School. College preparatory students take one year of Algebra and one year of Plane Geometry. Students who wish to major in mathematics take semester courses in Ad- vanced Algebra, Solid Geometry, Plane and Spherical Trigonometry, or College Algebra. A refresher course in Arithmetic is offered to the Freshmen who need additional training in this field, For those students entering fields in engi- neering, architecture, science, meteorology, statistics, and actuarial work, the complete mastery of all high school mathematics as a background for further advanced preparation is absolutely necessary. Of interest to all the students are the dis- play cases that show practical applications of the various mathematical subjects. Mathematics Department Honors Linccln N
