Shop courses, foreign lan- guages, math, and subjects such as Forge, O 81 G, and Hi-Lights, all found a place in our school. New classes offered this year included a photography class and an electricity class. The work experience program offered a chance for students to serve apprenticeship in the business world while still going to school, and through the continuation depart- ment special classes were offered to students not officially enrolled in high school.

Students signed up for that di- vision which would best aid them in preparing for the vocation of their choice. The majority of students registered for the general division which stressed a good general education rather than training in some specific skill. The pre-professional or college preparatory division provided training arranged for the college-bound student with aspirations to a profession. The business and trade preparatory division gave training in specific skills within these areas while the practical and fine arts division provided training for those planning a career in such a field as music or art.

These words are expressive of the lite of Mr. Oscar Trautz, SBHS teacher who died April l9. Mr. Trautz, an active alumnus of SBHS, was interested not only in the special class he taught here but displayed his interest in a.. students by sponsoring the ASB Grounds Com- mittee, chaperoning student busses for toot- ball games, and helping the student body whenever he could. lt has been said that Mr. Trautz, in his work with underprivileged and retarded chi.- dren, saw beauty in something not many peo- ple enjoy. We pay tribute to him as a teacher and as an outstanding citizen of our commu- nity and will long feel his loss.
