Conve- niences In the future, thanks tu the Agriculture classes, there will be an array of fruit trees, Christmas trees, grape vines, and ber- ry patches all at our dispos- al. In addition, there will be a man-made pond, used mainly for irrigation, and a picnic area. And all of this will be close by — on the eastern side of the school. Sound vague? Well, this is part of a long term pro- ject to be completed in 1988. Subsequently, the Agriculture production students will be responsi- ble for harvesting the crops and doing general maintainance. Reasons for the project include federal and state agriculture departments recommending that stu- dents be given “hands on” experience in agriculture production. Also, it will be used as a money-maker for the department. And most of all, it is expected to beautify the school grounds and surrounding area. 118 FFA: BOTTOM ROW: Don C.

Competitive Action The Distributive Educa- tion Clubs of America (DECA) program is an advanced study course in marketing, merchandis- ing, and management which is the only national youth organization oper- ating in the nation’s schools. At Burns, the club is competitive in local and district tournaments. Nine hundred categories make the contests hard. Even so, Mr. Ellis (club sponsor) said that in the past his students have 1 Seniors Steve Wellmon and Rob- bie Wess try on clothes in their Fashion Class. 120 ranked high. Competition is not all that DECA gives its mem- bers. It is one of the few clubs at Burns that gives students on-the-job ex- perience. Working hand in hand with Industrial Career Training (ICT), it allows students to actually go out in the field, gain experience, and get classroom credit. This program prepares students for life in the world outside high school.
