It is developed through the planning and construction of projects ot interest to pupils, discussions, observations and readings related to in- dustry. Through the medium of tools and materials, it provides an oppor- tunity for creative expression. It is necessary for the young pupil to keep pace with the current trends, and new developments in the world around him. In the various homemaking classes the girls are given an opportunity to learn the basic sewing skills, wardrobe planning, simple meal preparation, personality development, care of the home, child care and successful family living. In the art department the students are taught mechanical drawing and fine arts. Craft work, as weaving, leather work, and some metal work, is taught so that each student can discover what work he enjoys doing best. Page 10 The 1.951 O at kan of

Superintendent of Schools MATTIIICNV XV. GAFFNEY. A.IL. M.A. Ilolmrt College, Howzirsl lT11ive1'sity Ihiiversity of R0l'llL'SiGl' A school building is an investment in youth. lt is an expression of faith that each new generation holds an unfulfilled promise of greatness, which educa- tion can bring to fruition. A school building is a symbol of democracy. It is a physical demonstration of a great belief that men are created equal and deserve an equal opportunity to develop their best talents to the limits of their abilities. A school is a monument to the men and women of vision and courage who by their sacrifices through the years have made possisble free education in a free America. A school building is an empty shell that must have inspired teachers, devoted students, and a loyal supporting community before it can become alive. ln short, when the building is Hnished our work will have only begun.

Literature, creative expression, both oral 3l1Cl written, and the funda- mental language habits and skills combine to form the foundation for the English courses. Classroom reading, supplemented by the students' choice of reading matter, is designed for enjoyment and appreciation. Through literature is developed a line understanding of the ideals of living in a democratic society. Through the medium of creative expression, students are encouraged to share their views and talents, several of them having their poems pub- lished in the National High School Poetry Anthology and other magazines. Participation in the XVI-IEC junior Town Meeting of the Air, and the XVBEN Radio Forum, as well as-classroom discussions, provide abundant opportunity for self expression.
