Indoor and Outdoor Fun Home economics was the in- doors art of clothing, foods, and child development, while physical education was sim- ply the outdoors art of exercise. Clothing was taken on a semes- ter basis. This course taught sew- ing techniques and how to work with different fabrics. Foods, also, was taken by semesters and ex- plored learning how to prepare, cook, and bake foods. The third home economics course, child devlopment, examined children and how to deal with them. This course enabled a person to under- stand himself better, and students discussed positive reinforcement and human relationships. Child development, helps to prepare for leaving home, going to school, and to survive! said Mrs. S. Myer, clothing and child development in- structor. Physical education helped to keep the body fit for surviving, too. P.E. was a requirement of students for two years. Tennis and baseball were just a few of the many sports played. Estancia had another P.E. program called Adaptive P.E. This program was for students who had a physical condition that prevent- ed them from participating in regu- lar P.E. Adaptive P.E. has very good facilities and trained instuc- tors, said Ms. L. Brabander. Home economics and P.E. were simply two subject courses but were filled with much to offer. 1.

We ' re Making Progress ' e are delighted at long last to get two color cameras and other state of the art equipment , Mr. Daley, the broadcasting teach- er, said. In broadcasting, students worked behind and in front of the camera producing programs for television. Safety education was taught by Mr. Granite and contained a quar- ter of driver ' s education and a quarter of health. Many students took safety education in their sophomore year. Mike Joyner said, You can learn what to do in a traffic crisis and keep your body healthy. The library is bursting with tons of information for term papers, re- ports, and it even has an occasion- al romance novel. If you were look- ing for a quiet place to study or were searching for a particular book, the library was just what you needed. R.S.P. and E.H. were two special education programs on campiis. Students were referred by counsel- ors, parents, or teachers. Mrs. Lu- mian said, We feel they are capa- ble of working at an expected level with extra help. These programs and services were very important to the school ' s progress. Every single one was as essential as the other. 218 Academics
