New plans include a required social studies course of Occupational-Vocational Social Studies or World Geography and twentieth century World Affairs for tenth grade students. U .S. History for eleventh grade students is gradually being remodeled to review the consti- tutional debates, modern day problems which are a result of the reconstruction period after the civil war, the economic era of the late nineteenth century, and the place of America in modern affairs. History of our country before 1874 would be studied in junior high rather than eleventh grade. All new courses will enhance student oppor- tunities by using workshop and seminar ap- proaches as well as varying text books . 32

The 1965-66 school year saw a continu- ance of the Office and Distributive Co-op programs, Having been well established in their initial year, last year, and receiving sound support from the community, the second year's experience with these pro- grams showed new interests on the part of local business and industry people and in- creased opportunity for students in these departments to secure on -the -job training. A larger number of students were placed on jobs than previously, and new work stations were opened. Mr. Ehresman, co-ordinator of Office Co-op, and Mr. Coultes, co-or- dinator of Distributive Co-op, were able to extend the programs to assure future continuance . Added to on -the -job training, opened this year wasanew program, under the direction of Mr. Wilson, called Diversified Co-op. Inthisprogram, students training for main- tenance and repair jobs were placed on work stations in the school system. Their ex- perience this year will lead to similar oc- cupational placements next year in business and industry in the community. The increased enrollment in these pro- grams is evidence of growth of the Alpena School System. Shown on these pages are pictures of stu- dents on the job, in some cases with their employers.
