Conforming to its belief that a student should keep pace with man's everchanging environment our school offers four years of courses in the sciences. The first year is devoted to a general survey of modern scientific thought. After this broad base, a course in modern biology is given to the sophomores. The head of the Biology Department, as well as of the entire Science Department is the eminent author and scientist, Dr. Edward Frankel, whose recent book on DNA has won wide critical acclaim. Largely through his efforts, our biology program is one of the best in the city. ln the upper years two optional courses are offered. The first, chemistry, utilizes one of the most modern textbooks in this subject and is taught by the same teachers who conduct honors classes at the city's advanced high schools. The. second, physics, provides a stepping stone for students towards more advanced SCIENCE studies. Through these programs, our motto of Torah Umadah, of Ethics and Knowledge, is fulfilled in all its aspects. 4, 6, f X X A M-R. M. KOTKIN MR. M. WERBLOW E 5, Ai, QW 3' .
