He felt that last year the choirs were a very promising group of talented young singers. Davis had been teaching at Santa Rita for three years.

Last year's officers were: President Eugene Liacaillade, Vice President Tom Tilford, Secretary Kristin Putman, and Treasurer Sheldon Knudsen. The Vocal Department as a whole, consisted of approximately 140 people. A few activities the Vocal Department participated in were, singing at the local nursing homes around Christmas time, and enjoying picnics and parties. When asked what was most important in a good choir member, Dr. Davis stated, Attitude is the most important. When asked what satisfaction she got out of singing, Patsy Kreuger, a member of the Advanced Women's Choir stated, Knowing you're doing something bet- ter to contribute to your school. Patsy had been a member of the choir for three years. She said she sang because, I love it!

The main goal for ...V n49 ' A junior Roxanne Kamalu works on a project for DECA. COE last year was for each member to raise enough money to buy a ticket, for themselves and their COE employer, for the Student Union Ball. The purpose of the ball was to thank employers for the job they had provided for the students. Officers for COE last year were: President Michelle DesRosier, Vice President Helen Baumann, Secretary Sally Carillo, and Treasurer Debby Arthur. When asked why she joined COE Michelle stated, I really wanted to get a job, and I was interested in business. She would recommend COE to students, because it offered a job that paid well and gave two elective credits. It also of- fered many types of opportunities for different kinds of people. Michelle stated, What I got out of COE was on- the-job experience, school credit, learn- ing how to work with people, and the experience and knowledge of working in a business office. COE provided jobs for its members who normally would not have the op- portunity to get jobs. The members at- tended school in the morning, and worked in an office in the afternoon. To join COE there were two re- quirements. First, you needed a recom- mendation from at least two business teachers and each student had to have taken at least two business classes. Goals for the group last year were to keep their jobs, and be promoted. The students felt COE was a great class.
