It was a place to study, relax and check out books. The Media Center was run by three industrious la- dies, Cynthia Kirkley, Ramona Truskunas and Karen Gensler. They kept the books neatly in place and made sure the audio visual equipment and video equipment were will taken care of. The Career Center was a source of college and career in- formation. It provided the stu- dents with answers they need to know about the future. The Career Center was run by Myrna Chow. One of the unique features of the Center is that students work there, counsel- ing the students. by Tracie Uchida Mrs. Truskunas works diligently at her typewriter.

The Industrial Arts offered classes such as drafting, photography, auto, wood and metal work- shops. In these classes stu- dents learned some practical and handy skills. Students were encouraged to take pride in their work. Also these classes gave a head start to those stu- dents who wished to attend trade schools after high school. The art Department consisted of the ceramics, drawing, and painting classes. Students learned to fully develop their tal- ents. Some entered their work in art shows and were very suc- cessful. The Art Department al- so recruited a new teacher, Jim Budde, replacing Mike Hillman. Jeff Murray Dept. Chair Jim Budde Jim Baucher Dept.

ojiftQK Language SPEAKS OUT The Foreign Language De- partment had three lan- guages to choose from: Spanish, French, or German. Each teacher had his own method of teaching. The For- eign language classes contin- ued to be some of the students ' favorites. Aside from learning the language itself, .students had the benefit of familiarizing themselves with the cultures that went along with the lan- guage. Thus, they had a better understanding of the languge they were learning. by Patty Mejia ▲ Mrs. Pate points out something related to the French culture, the Eifel Tower.
