Art and Music Courses Develop Raw Talent Pupils in grades one to six are developing new interests through art and music. These are the every day talents brought out to grow through culture. The art pupils find many different ways to enjoy art. Examples include drawing, painting, paper sculpture, and experimenting with materials. The creative works in art are encouraged by Mr. Hubert Feasel. Music department pupils also have active schedules. Mr. Leon Gerig is the director of vocal music while Mr. Don Gerig teaches instrumental study to these grade students. The varied routine of a music class includes singing, listening to records, watching films, marching to songs, and talent con¬ tests.
