The Future Teachers of America organization aims to inspire those students who are inclined to follow the teaching profession. To get first-hand knowledge of teachers' responsibilities, members of the FTA served as ushers at a district teachers meeting, and participated in worthwhile group discussions. They also assisted Mr. Freeman in night school registration. During National Education Week, the FTA assisted teachers by serving as aides. This valuable experience gave club members an insight into a challeng- ing profession. Keenly aware of the needs of others, the FTA prepared and presented a Christ- mas basket to a needy family.
