o l 5, L Aim Alalahcfa For all freshmen students General Science is a required subject. Through- out the year the freshmen become ac- quainted with various phases of chem- istry, physics, and biology. Although they go into each one only slightly, it prepares them for any science subjects in the next three years. Biology is the subject offered to stu- dents in their sophomore year. The stu- dents learn about plant, animal, and human life. They learn of the many dif- ferent parts of plants and animals and how to dissect them. The chemistry department, which is under the head of Mr. Fred Ring, is another science subject offered to stu- dents in either their junior or senior year. Chemistry deals with the physical and chemical changes of elements and compounds. Students learn how to make certain compounds and mixtures by mix- ing different elements and compounds Without blowing themselves up.

Mug. ....,.....-A . x , eomefric enibwea Mathematics began back in the year 17,000 B.C. when it was originated by the Greeks and the Arabs. And now, in l947, it is still challenging us. Thornton students are fortunate in having such a wide variety of math courses offered to them. Algebra is offered first, and is an elective of stu- dents in any year. If a student takes it in his freshman year, he may follow through with geometry in his sophomore year, advanced algebra and solid geom- etry in his junior year, and college alge- bra and trigonometry in his senior year. Thornton students realize that a good background of mathematics is essential to success in many fields. The efficiency of Thornton's math department depends to a great extent upon the supervision of Mr. Guy Phillips, who is the department head. Ml ?7TwiT'Nl'1 l ' x ,....J N M
