Tender Loving Care The Home Economics Department was kept busy this year with several new projects and classes. Home Economics III, a new class for the more advanced students, was started and proved to be very success- ful. Foreign cookery and specialties were taught along with advanced sewing. The traditional Christ- mas Style Show and Tea for parents was held De- cember l4, and it proved to be even more successful than the previous year. The teaching staff was enlarged to 3 teachers because of the growing popularity of the classes. Mrs. Mary Williams, Mrs. Peggy McAvenia and Mrs. Janice Pierre handled the duties. During the year several organizations such as 4-H, drill team and maiorettes used the Home Economics Department for dinners and meetings.
