Math for Zoday and When the Freshman enters high school, he finds himself taking either general math or beginning algebra from Mrs. Ortt, Mrs. Nolen, Mr. Schiller, or Mr. Whittington. He soon will be thinking more and more about the World of Tommorrow and considering other math courses to suit his interests and plans. For general home and business needs, there is business arithmetic. For scientific and technical work, there should be training in the traditional math courses, plane geometry, algebra II, solid geometry, and trigonometry taught by Miss Smith. Math may be also taken as one of the great cultural subjects, for in mathematics man has evolved an international symbolism by which to express the universal laws he has discovered. Left to right: Miss Smith. Mr, Whittington, Mrs. Nolen Mrs. Ortt.
