Bodies, Beakers, and Betelgeuse Studying the stars, the nature of Physics, and performing experiments were all part of the science department at Tell City High School. Because of the curriculum, the teachers, and the fun which one received when the two were combined, many people enjoyed the classes. Mr. Barnett, who taught Physical Science, Phys- ics, and Astronomy, can introduce one to the na- ture of science. The Biology teachers who super- vised the disecting were Mr. Byrd and Mr. Varner, who also taught Advanced Biology. The Chemistry teacher was Mr. Richardson, who also observed the experiments which students performed in lab. A wide variety of equipment, which the science department possesses, helped add to the excitement of class. Above: Overcoming their initial fear is the first step in dissect- ing a rat. Above: Learning the human anatomy is one of the accomplish- ments of Jackie Jarboe and Wendy Reed in Mr. Varner's biology class. Below: Using beakers and bunsun burners, Scott Etienne and Le- nore Borders complete the Chemistry experiment.

Mr. Robert Day taught Geometry this year. Mr. Louis Hall taught Algebra I and General Mathematics, while Mr. Allen Kramer taught Advanced Algebra and Trigonometry. A new face on the teaching staff this year was Mrs. Brenda Rose, who taught Algebra I and Gen- eral Mathematics. Above Left: Basic math skills are a neces- sity in all aspects of life in and out of high school. Randy Williams and David Harris review.
