MR. F. JAMES LAMBOURNE Biology MRS. CAROL UNVERFERTH Biology MR. ALFRED DOMINICO Biology We investigate daily phenomena MR. WILLIAM DUDROW Biology The science courses are planned as preparation tor college. Emphasis was placed on theory this year, and individual research was encouraged because it helps students acquire a better understanding of basic concepts. The blue book entitled Biological Sciences Curriculum Study was used in biology classes. This program is designed to explain how scientific theories were developed, as well as to present basic information. Laboratory periods were more frequent than in other years to allow students to investigate many topics. Laboratory study was essential to the chemistry course. Actual observation of phenomena complemented theoretical material from classroom lectures and the textbook. Students studied the chemical nature of matter on all levels of its structure: molecular, atomic, and sub-atomic. The physics course aimed to present the traditional information, while keeping up with the latest discoveries in this increasingly widening field. Individual projects, which were required, and field trips illustrated the applications of this subject. MR. ROBERT CAVINS Chemistry MR. ROBERT SNOUFFER Chemistry MR. RICHARD FRYMAN Biology 28

MRS. SANDRA THATCHER Home Economic II. Sewing MRS. ANN REAM Sewing MRS. BETTY WOOLPERT Home Economics I. Sewing Imagination is the key to creativity MRS. MARJORIE MYERS An I. Personal An MR. RICHARD HOSKINS Mochanical Drawing I. II Students gained experience in Home Economics I and II which will be invaluable to them when they are homemakers. They furnished an imaginary apartment, prepared meals, did laundry, and studied home nursing and child care. Students in sewing classes became proficient in the skill of sewing. In Industrial Arts I and II demonstrations and movies illustrated the correct and safe procedures for using the machine shop and the finer points of furniture design. Students began with small hand-tool projects and progressed to large machine projects. Mechanical drawing students practiced shape description in preparation for actual drafting. Students learned to analyze and appreciate art in the art courses. They studied basic principles in Fine Arts I and utilized these principles in more extensive and detailed projects in Fine Arts II. The Personal Art course allowed students to choose individual projects in any field they wished. MR. DAVID GOSS MR. RICHARD FOLEY Mechanical Drawing I. Art ,j poreonai Art Industrial Arts II 30
