Writing is particularly stressed by the de- partment at the junior and senior levels. Juniors who show promise in English can opt to take the Junior honors course and interested Seniors can take Advanced Placement Eng- lish. According to department head, Mr. Wicke, to understand and be understood is the major goal in teaching English at St. Thomas Aquinas. 4 99 . j jsj. by I Q ' A ....

3 i MATHEMATICS The Math Department, under the chairmanship of Sister Donna Marie, strives to acquaint each student with the most universal of all languages, the language of mathematics. Among the goals of this department is to aid in the development of logical thinking and its widespread application in our everyday lives. The study of Algebra I, Geometry and Algebra II helps to prepare the students for the more complex courses of Intro- ductory Math Analysis and Calculus. Courses are taught so that students can apply the ideas in areas outside the field of mathematics. The Math League exists for the purpose of providing stimu- lating and challenging competition for interested, advanced students of mathematics. By offering these courses and activities, the Math Department tries to make the student cognizant of the great impact of mathematics in our world.

How easily could you research a paper without the organization of Sister Lucretia's domain-the school library? With the help of her staff of volunteer mothers, Sister Lucretia has built the library into a functioning, growing part of the school which effectively aids the academic community in its search for knowledge.
