Mr. Floyd Macomber - Agriculture Mr. Rae Hoopes - Audio-Visual Mr. William Frank - Industrial Arts PECIAL To the students at A. C. S. are offered several elective courses in the area of practical study. The Coop Board Services enable us to have a Driver Training course with Mr. Albert Audsley as instructor. This course is always in great demand. Mr. Rae Hoopes acts as Audio- Visual coordinator for the schools in the district. Stu- dents learn the use of project- ors, recorders, and other equip- ment. The boys are ably instructed in Industrial Arts by Mr. Will- iam Frank. On a part-time basis, Mr. Henry Kline teaches Mechan- ical Drawing, and shop classes. A very active department is observed in the Agriculture course offered. Boys interest- ed in this area for their voc- ation are well prepared to make Agriculture their full time work. Both the Industrial Arts and Agriculture courses offer a major field to students at A. C. S. Row 1: Miss Mary Knopp Art Student Teacher, Mrs. Janice Lyons - Home Ec- onomics, Miss Audrey Oaks Art. Row 2: Mrs. Dorthy Fox - Home Economics, Mr. p Walter Korynowski - Art. ix Homemaking courses offered at A, C. S. stimulate, delight, and instruct the future home- makers of the area. Tantalizing odors and interesting fashions, lively discussions are a part of this curriculum. This is one of the areas a student may use as a major field for graduation. The suite of rooms is so de- signed that students have an opportunity to practice in var- ious areas of homemaking. was . pph, Art opens a new and exciting world to students as they become acquainted with many areas of the Fine Arts. Seeing their own works on display stimulates stu- dents to new heights of creativity and expression. Realizing and utilizing shape and design in every- day life, and creating an awareness of beauty is im- portant in the development of this curriculum. Mr. Edward Schreiber - Boys' Physical Education, Mrs. Clara Fuest, Mrs. Eleanor Kryman, Mrs. Helen Disinger, Required for all students is active participation in the physical education program at A. C. S. Two regularly sched- uled gym classes are supplemen- ted by intramurals and extra classes. Many students take part in the various sports ac- tivities offered during the year. Honor teams, trophy win- ners, best athletes are all desirable, but of even greater importance is the goal of phy- sical fitness and good sports- manship for all students.

Mr Edmund H. Viemeister Elementary Principal Mrs. Helen Kellner Secretary What do you want to do when you grow up? Possibly this is a question asked more often than any other in the Elementary grades. Mr. Edmund Viemeister, Element- ary Principal, and the staff of teachers at the Pros- pect Street, Sheldon, and Cowlesville Schools labor earnestly to mark the path for the hundreds of eager grade students they meet daily. For the many questions, they seek answers 5 they try to give the students as many new learning experiences as possible. The regular staff is supplemented by teachers on the Board of Co- Operative Services in the areas of Art, Music, physical education, and science. ELEME TARY CHOOL Every age has had its own art, the art which best expressed its aspirations. The art of the next century or so may be the art of teaching. Why not? To mold human beings into their finest possibilities involves the same epic struggle to create beauty and harmony out of stubborn ma- terial limitations which is the foundation of all great art. -Dorothy Canfield Fisher- Standing: Mrs. Rosemary Housenger, Miss Audrey Smith- Seated: Mrs. Margaret Branche, Miss Althea Kale. 16
