The demands ofthis socie- ty are such that skilled training is important for those who seek employment in the business and economic world ofthe '70's. The development of skills in the Industrial Arts. Home Economics and Business Education Depart- ments are such that regardless of the professional or vocational goals of students enrolled therein. use can be made ofthese skills in their daily living. Economic activities and economic problems that are common to citizens within RHS, and of course. after we leave RHS are part ofthe curricula content. The demands of business are constant. and yet the demands undergo continuous change. The results of surveys that outline employment opportunities per- vade our world oflearning here at RHS.

rt- Music 4 Audio Visual Centers References are necessary for required term papers. special reports and class work as well as homework. RHS is fortunate enough to have two audio visual centers manned by capable librarians on the first floor and the third floor. A well equipped center is an effec- tive aid to students who need such help. The aesthetic side ofthe soul is not neglect- ed in our development here at RHS as the music department has many choral groups, an orchestra and the world renowned RHS band. Music groups enter state contests and are frequent winners of special awards. The RHS Band is one of the favored participants in the famous Chicago Bud Billiken Parade. The art department fosters expression in beauty, individuality and creative talent. Originality wins plaudits. Instructors in this area are quick to encourage student talents. , Sa 70 fl' 1- ll.

Math - Foreign Language A Speech ...gl 'Z if ' A. Mrs. Jerutha Donald, Mrs. Marion Barnett, Mrs. Gloria Love, Mr. Ernest Bennett and Mr. John Pitts instructors of the RHS Math Department. Mr. Antonia Diaz Padilla, and Miss Ann Martin- maki Foreign Language Instructors. Who can be so positive in these times when they declare two plus two is four. Who is there among us that can afford to ignore the necessity to break down the language barrier. Unless our new words. aids. gimmicks or gadgets are posi- tive devices that are understood, our resultant efforts at learning are nil. Our speaking and writing command of the English lan- guage here at RHS are indications that the Speech and Eng- lish curricula offers basics that enrich. Each year contest winners in written and oral speech bring honors to RHS as we participate in city wide, county and state contests. RHS students are fluent and expressive at the end of their senior year as they realize an excellent command of the mother tongue is needed in the world that extends beyond high school. Good salesmen are clever, different effective and good. 3 5... fx --I N .Sf-:fx 14 'WA Mrs. Catherine Miller and Mrs. Y.Iean Chambers Speech Instructors. it ff fm . iffy i 2 li 4
