— latent It’s not a junk yard but odds and ends that first-year art teacher Lisa Ashley uses as class projects. Ashley remarks that she was really impressed with the talent she found in Art III and IV when she came to Bement. Karen Wilkinson and Mark York keep their hectic schedules more hectic with practices galore. Wilkinson spends some of early morning hours practicing with the Show Choir — a group of dedicated youngsters. Four bands rolled into one provide Director Mark York with enough to keep his schedule from slowing down. If it is not marching, concert, or jazz, it’s pep! York applauded the quality of the high school’s performance as the students, too, maintain a heavy schedule.

fyour t — Sit up straight, don’t look at your keys, these are just a few things you hear in Keyboarding classes. Striving for perfection and doing your best is what Business Education teacher Merle Taylor expects. Syntax errors and out of data errors were unheard of a few years ago, but now are common occur-ances in Data Processing classes. “I really enjoy working with computers and love the challenge of working out the programs”, said Advanced Data Processing student Jon Lewis. Accounting class seems to be on a upswing also. “Most people in Accounting want to be there, so it is an enjoyable class to teach, time consuming for the student but rewarding when they finish their projects”, stated Taylor. Doing your best and striving for perfection will always make Taylor happy and satisfied.

70fat'4, A lot more than supper! Home Economics has gone beyond the cooking and sewing routines and widened the horizon of home and family management to include nutrition, resource management, and other family-oriented courses. Home Economics teacher Ann Borelli remarked about her two separate Child Care classes which were back to back for the first time. “This is the longest preschool we’ve ever had; it certainly provided us with a realistic situation.” Senior Barb Gentry indicated how much fun it was working with the preschoolers. Gentry recalled one of her charges — Eric or Super Eric who, every day, had to decide who he was. He was usually Super Eric, of course. Management of Resources is the only required class that is taught in the department, but a lot of interest is drawn to the rest due to their practical nature.

Above: Keeping a watchful eye out for preschool painters is a good idea as Senior Tiffany Harrison would confirm. 1C
