HOME ECONOMICS Boys Enjoyed Cooking, Sewing Home Economics, no longer was dominated by girls. Mrs. Jackie Gwinn, instructor, first taught the increased number of boys basic skills, then covered the “how to’s” in baking appetizers and main dishes. Submarine sandwiches remained a favorite for the second year and provided creative challenge and full stomachs for those enrolled. Girls food classes showed more expertise in food preparation. Complicated dishes like yeast breads, special breakfasts and canning were highlighted. Mrs. Jeanne Lough taught all clothing classes. Clothing I stressed basic skills while other clothing classes offered individual projects, tailoring, fashion design and career study as objectives.

CADET TEACHING New Learning Experiences Cadet Teaching was offered to those senior students who either were considering a career in teaching or wanted to work with young people. The abrupt change from the role of learner to a position of authority was quite an experience for those who participated. Though the program was limited in size, several students took part each semester. Once classroom work was completed, they moved into one of the three grade schools, or the two junior highs in the Dallas area. Without exception, those in this program found it to be both rewarding, different, and indicated that it was an experience they would not easily forget. Cadet Teaching 21
