- Abstract
This article reports that Classen High School in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma has conducted a scientific experiment during the school year 1953-1954. The experiment was the offering of a new course in science. The results have been probable enough that such a course will become a permanent part of the curriculum. During the school year 1952-1953, demonstration equipment as well as laboratory was ordered with the idea that it could serve in both physics classes and the new science course. It was observed that there was a great need for a program that would acquaint the students with more than one branch of science. The usual science offerings at Classen consisted of three or four sections of physics, four or five sections of chemistry, five sections of geology and nine sections of biology.
