Students inaylbegin French I at either the junior or senior high eve . On the high school level, the entire curriculum is in- dividualized, allowing each student to work indepen- dently at his own pace. At the end of a four-year program, students will be competent in each of the four language skills, listen- ing, speaking, reading, and writing. Below: Miss M. Tevis X as Q Above: Mr. R. Solberg The driver's education course was once again offered to all sophomores and to juniors who had not yet had drivers training. With new textbooks called LET'S DRIVE RIGHT for the classroom course, and a new standard transmission car for the behind-the-wheel training, the students had a better opportunity to learn- and experience the right driving procedures for high- way safety.

Music Makers Mr. Rowlands has a variety of musically connected jobs that keep him busy at all times. I-Ie plans and directs concerts for both the stage and pep bands. Each student in band is given lessons once a week by Mr. Rowlands. The students come in during their study halls and after school for lessons, and with approximately 85 students in band, they keep Mr. Rowlands on the move. Mr. Rowlands also takes care of the solo- ensemble select- ions for the spring contest. A big day for Mr. Rowlands and his band was the day measurements were taken for their new uniforms, and an even bigger day will be the day when the uniforms actually arrive. Mr. Swenson is also kept busy. Besides directing the Girls Glee Club and the Mixed Chorus at the high school school, Mr. Swenson gives beginner band lessons at the Galesville and Ettrick elementary schools to fifth and sixth graders. Mr. Swenson gives individual voice lessons to several students, and helps students practice their solo- ensemble selections. LEFT: Mr. D. Rowlands BELOW: Mr. R. Swenson L
