Mathematics Department IRIS the other departments of instruc- ' tion, the mathematics department offers the student body a choice between non-academic courses and college pre- paratory courses. The variety of courses is wide enough to allow each pupil to select work suited to his needs, desires, and ability. The tenth year offers plane geometry, and some honor students are given in- struction in trigonometry. In the junior year the student may select intermediate algebra. There are fast moving classes in this subject for apt mathematicians who cover trigonometry as well as algebra in the junior year. Seniors enter class- es in which they s t u d y advanced geometry. There is also a course in ' . s - I. XX iiiixi-N KUI.l.l industrial mathe- matics to aid pupils In obtain positions in industry. Special classes. covering more than the required course. enable many pupils to omit the lirst half year of college mathe- matics. College records reveal that Tren- ton High students have an unusual high record ot success in their mathematical courses not only in their freshman year but throughout the entire four years of study.
