Newcomers change their old habits Learning to change their old habits was a major part of school life for the seventh graders. This introduction occurred when they entered the new world at De Smet High School. Their new life and atmos- phere involved restricted class schedules, new teachers for every subject, admittance slips if they were tardy, greater compe- tition in sports, and detentions if they got into trouble. They also had to get used to a new vocabulary program in reading class. Mrs. Johnson said, Ultimately the participants of this program will become audacious in the use of their prodigious vocabulary and will pursue interminable papers of material in a highly proficient, authoritative way. Kathie Prahl taught English. She said, We investigated how sentences are constructed. Like a scientist in the lab, we dissected sentences, examined the parts, and put them back together again. Mrs. Prahl also taught a visual arts class. They were introduced to the basic elements found in all art work, line, shape and color used with different media. Joyce Fried, taught two classes of life science in the morning and also a study hall. In the afternoon Mrs. Fried was in charge of the Learning Disabilities Resource Room for grades 7-12. This is the first year there has been such a program at the junior and high school levels, said Mrs. Fried. Ron Peterson taught better fundamentals of basketball and wrestling. We also worked on lifetime sports skills, said Mr. Peterson.
