COURSES IN Social acceptance is largely a part of clothing and clothing design, and I guess that's why I became so fascinated by it, said junior Dagmar Kaspar, Clothing IV student. Home Economics included Clothing I, II, III, and family living courses taught by Mrs. Roberta Foth. As each class progressed more difficult tasks were accomplished, Foods I, II, III, and IV classes, taught by Mrs. Chris- tine Pace, were challenged by projects such as vegetarian diets, fitness, preserving food, and cake decorating. Many courses of special interest were offered to Rural students through the curricular program at the Kaw Area Vocational-Technical School. These half-day classes allowed for the development of job entry skills as students com- pleted required high school credits, Other students pre- pared to complete advanced one and two year programs. 5 f9 5,5 5 .r t, , V - ,, I Q I- xr ,mls ft. . 3 , -.M 1 18 CHIMES '81 1 W ...J L ,I Z-
