Science is a class to learn to think logically, to judge on the basis of facts rather than on the basis of emotion. Science is a class of learning by doing. The 9th grade Earth Science classes en- ioyed the benefit of 25 new books this year. Biology students kept busy by dissect- ing various animals, and by studyingmicro- biology.
