The homemaking department provides much of this preparation for girls through the elements of food preparation, ettiquette, better management, better business, budgets and sewing.

driver’s education Driver's education, a one semester course, offers the student the opportunity to help eliminate some of the traffic problems of today by teaching the proper driving techniques and habits. Throughout the year the students spend their time both in and out of the classroom While in class the students spend time preparing for situations which might be encountered on the rood. While driving the students learn how to properly operate a vehicle under the guidance of Mr. Al Walin, the driver's education instructor There were, however, a few anxious minutes during these driving sessions. Janet Schuett, her first day driving, ran into the ditch and Linda Petrocine gave some of the teachers a laugh by stalling the car in front of the teachers' lounge. This year the driver's education car was a 1964, metallic blue, Bel Air Chevrolet, given to the school by Davidson Chevrolet of Loveland, Colorado. Mr. Al Walin • 1
