The Professional Outlook Applying business skills to any career is an extra bo- nus. The business classes offered are accounting 1, account- ing 2, career education, office skills, typing 1, typing 2, and com- puter programming. Students who take a business class have a head start for their future life and col- lege achievement. Also, giving yourself a headstart could be taking a CROP class. These classes range from a semes- ter to a year. The topics go from nursing to auto mechanics. It ' s an experience one will never forget, for on the job training gives a stu- dent 10 credits. Work experience is a class that is separate from school. Most stu- dents get off from school early and go to work. Some days you come in the morning for a lecture and questionnaire papers, but most of all it ' s a class for you, a class that you make work.

Industrial Arts teachers Mr. Waters, Mr. Conway, Mr. Cutforth, Mr. Matthews, and Mr. Hobbs. The Making Of A Career The sanding of wood, the grinding of metal, and the gentle stroke of a brush: these were actions made by stu- dents who were lucky enough to enroll in an art or an industrial art class. Woodshop, photography, art, electronics, and power me- chanics were just a few of the classes in these two departments. When asked, what he liked about teaching art, Mr. Smith, an art teacher, said, It ' s hard to put a name on the reason why I like teaching. For some students these classes did not stop after a semester. Some found out that they liked it anr iHPt it might mean a career jomeday. Mow would one use in- dustrial art skills in a career? Mark Kirsch said, If I wanted to be a carpenter, I already have the be- ginning skills pertaining to carpen- try. Would he consider a career in industrial arts? would serious be interested in a job in carpentry. I learned how to create objects like furniture and other useful items. To some people ' s surprise, not only jobs such as doctors, lawyers, or executives help our economy, but also jobs like steelworkers, electricians, painters, artists, and designers.
