BOARDWORK is helpful for everyone, Mr. Bruno's Algebra II students Sharon Cindrich and Jeff Wentz find that two heads are better than one. 28 . ,,,, ' MATH ANALYSIS is challenging for even our senior academic students. They nevertheless enjoyed the work as they pre- pared for collegiate study. MATH Proved In an efTort to become a stimu- lating source of knowledge in prac- tical and technological fields, math- ematics oflers many courses mea- sured to the individual capacities of the student. Besides Modern Math I and II, Algebra I and II, Plane Geometry and Trigonometry, Analytic Ge- ometry, Math Analysis, Economic Math, Practical Math I and II are also available. Students with ex- ceptional ability may pursue a pro- gram in advanced mathematics. Students not wishing to pursue fur- ther mathematical study may choose non-academic algebra. This year skilled students were able to take the 1969 National Mathematics annual High School Examination and to participate in the Algebra I contest at Carnegie- Mellon sponsored by the Mathe- matics Council of Western Penn- sylvania. The department chair- man is Mr. Angelo Cupani.

USING THE OVERHEAD, Dave McCreery explained a problem in Plane Geometry to the class while Mrs. Bruno listened with interest. MR. DUDO observed as Joe Camaioni computed the square root of a number in Math Analysis. To Be Stimulating and Intriguing WORKING PROBLEMS at the board is a big task in Geometry class, especially when the assignment was longer than expected. Here the class compares their problems to those being done by Helen Gingerella, Nick Dereta, Chuck Mehno, and Mike Todd. ..,,,m it , . is L- 5 ' 'ii- I L' K ' Sswsiww SQL. 3 fi X im .,,,,,...--'P'- ,,,,,,s,.,,..-w-Q--- 29
