Mr. Dillon, a new Easton teacher, explains why M+A+T+H = SUCCESS. Those dreaded formulas, equations and endless numbers; what do they all mean? We know that often Easton Eagles find these trying and we some- times fear those word problems. Yet our students have improved their CTBS scores and grades through the efforts of our dedicated Math teach- ers. Basic arithmetic. Algebra, Trig and Geometry are all offered at Eas- ton. Computer math and calculators help us through these difficult prob- lems. Members of the Math depart- ment are Mrs. Flora Burkert, Ms. Leslie Kramer, Ms. M. Dillon.

Studies Handicapped INDUSTRIAL ARTS Mr. Z's class learning the fine art of working with wood TO SAW OR NOT TO SAW. that is one of the questions posed by Mr. Dale Zachowski in his In- dustrial Arts classes. The purpose of the department is to teach the students the proper use of tools and machines and the importance of planning before the project is started. Easton students enrolled in this class follow a project from planning stage to completion. And some of these projects are works of art. From spoonracks and checker- boards to foot stools and bookcases these students learn that the best way is not the shortest way. Sketches, list of materials, and ac- tual building all take time. But what lovely carpentry designs they have when these projects are com- pleted. Mr. Dunbar divides his time between tech- nical drawing and woodworking.

MUSIC The Band, at Homecoming and in concert Dance to the music—That’s what Easton Eagles want to do. Mr. Bischoff, director of the Golden Eagle Band, says that the purpose of the department is to provide the students with a comprehen- sive musical education. He composes much of the music that the band plays and choreographs the formations for half-time field shows. The Vocal Music department is led by Ms. Bonnie Davis. She teaches the stu- dents in chorus to improve their vocal- ization. The students learn both reli- gious and popular songs. The singing Eagles perform at many local churches. In January Ms. Davis turned the choir over to Ms. J. Demarest, who returned from leave. The melodious tones of the Singing Eagles adds zest to the Open House activities. The choir, directed by Senior Singing Eagle Willie Mackie. 22
