IN LEARNING I enjoy teaching,over all my other classes, Algebra II, stated Mr, Wayne Howbert, the math department head, I like teaching Algebra ll be- cause the students taking this course are usually taking it by choice and not because they are required by the school their parents. The mathematical and busi- ness departments of WRHS provided fifteen different courses for the student body during the 1980-81 school year. Algebra Il isn't the only course available in the math department. There are diff- erent courses with varying difficultiesdesigned to meet the needs of each individual student. These courses range from consumer math and Alegbra I to Algebra ll and numerical analysis. A new data processing computer was acquired forthe business department of WRHS during the year. The computer is a great asset tothe business depart- 'Quin ment, stated department head Mr. Chester Templer. We used the computer in the beginning for the advanced accounting classes and Typing Il classes but after we learned a little more about the use of it we worked it into the business machines part of our depart- ment.
