The Industrial Arts Department had a very productive year. This may or may not be attributed to the new white jackets worn by the faculty mem¬ bers. Child Development classes entertained groups of children on Hallo¬ ween, Christmas and Easter. Nutrition was well received in its second year, and there was an overwhelming response to the introduction of Creative Stitchery. In the fields of electricity and electronics, the job market has opened up tremendously. This trend is seen in the three hundred per cent increase in the want advertisements for people with these backgrounds. In art, Ross Berman and Susan Lynch were chosen to exhibit at the Mas¬ sachusetts Regional Scholastic Art Awards sponsored by the Boston Globe.
