-l-NOE They Reach for the Stars! Blue jeans? Tennis shoes? T-shirts? Although many students considered these clothes comfortable, they were out for students in VOE. This course taught students correct office procedures including appearance. VOE was an elective offered to seniors. These seniors went to school for half a day and they went to work. There was also a pre- employment lab for juniors. These students worked on filing, bank reconciliation, electronic typewriter, dictaphone, and the new memory word processor. Citizens National Bank, The Killeen Police Depart- ment, American State, Household Finance, and The Killeen Teachers Credit Union were just some of the training stations. Students were automatically members of OEA-Office Educa- tional Association. This club met on the second Tuesday of each month. These meetings usually provided a guest speaker. Mr. McKelvain, house three counselor, was a speaker on Tuesday, January 11, 1983. He spoke of the proper men- tal attitudes to take in the business world and also how to act while working. All VOE students and some employers were invited to a Christmas breakfast at Western Sizzlin. The employer-employee banquet was held in March at the Mini-Dome. During January members started preparing for com- petition which was held in February. Although this course was very time- consuming and demanding, it was a very good way to get the training one needed for their future. Accor- ding to Michele Lenox, UVOE is a good experience for anybody going into business. ' BUSILY typing at her job at Mike Kilpatrick Pontiac Buick is Denise Benson.

State Board Bound Perms, haircuts, and manicures were only a few of the many ser- vices offered by the students of Cosmetology who were preparing for State Board. The students who were selected for the two year course beginning as juniors came from three schools: Ellison, Killeen, and Florence. Each student was a member of the Voca- tional Clubs of America. The Cosmetology department was open to the public every day until 3:30 and on Thursday until 8:00. The students gained valuable experience in wor ing with the public and had a variety of clients. Estelle Wagner said, l've learned so much, and I feel I can communicate much better with people. The senior class could easily be identified by the white uniforms they wore. Most of the patrons commented the the uniforms gave the students a professional look. The junior class wore green smock tops and white slacks. The department, headed by Mrs. Lois Harrison, trained and prepared students for the six hour state board exam. Once the students had their licenses the doors to many other fields were open besides being a hairstylist. Some of these were make-up artistry, colorist, total fashion, merchandising and design- ing. Sandi Hudson said, 'There are so many exciting new fields to choose from it's hard to decide which one to specialize in. After two years of hard work the students were state board bound and ready for their exciting new careers.
