LESBIA MOLINA Guatemalan exchange student. Various faces from the senior class weren’t seen in the halls of G.H.S. this year. They were seen, though, leaving Greenport by bus at 7:30 every morning and arriving back in Greenport at 4:30 every afternoon. Where did they go all day? These students participated in the Area Occupa- tional Education Center located in Riverhead. En- rolled in an occupational course designed to pro- vide them with saleable skills for future employ- ment opportunities, the students had an unusual opportunity to combine a fine academic education with occupational preparation. Occupational Education helped to prepare these boys and girls with the skills and knowledge need- ed to enter a skilled occupation as an advanced learner. Its main purpose is trade preparation and the development in each student of those qualities that will contribute toward a satisfying and pro- ductive life. The various courses offered to our seniors were Automobile Mechanics, aimed to assist in devel- oping an understanding of the function and princi- ples of the operations of various systems found in the modem auto; Beauty Culture aimed to help prepare students become beauticians and meet the LAURA ANN YANTSOS Laughter and sincerity run hand in hand; capture them both if you can.
