HOME EC. Bags of Goodies Teaching the Home Ec sections were staff members Mrs. Jackie Gwinn and Mrs. Jeannie Lough. They stated that they enjoyed their classes and the year; they were also very pleased with the enrollment. Having four boys sign up for Family Living second semester was encouraging. They hoped that more boys would sign up in the future. The most enjoyable classes offered included Tailoring, where coats and blazers were made and Foods, where hordes of would-be cooks were seen in the hall with their little brown bags of goodies. Child Care, Family Living and Home Furnishings were other classes offered. Activities in these classes included teacher demonstration, class work and the Friday free day, where students completed projects of their own choosing.

Forestry enrollees gained much from treks to Boise Cascade Paper Mills, Willamette Industries and various Christmas tree farms. Lumber utilization, commercial applications and problems of thinning and upkeep were all studied. Each student also planted a number of trees on the school tree farm and received instruction in chain saw operation, as well. Classroom time concentrated on study of hardwoods, softwoods, underbrush and starting seedlings. Meanwhile the agriculture classes worked in the greenhouse on plant propagation and utilized John Deere educational materials for the classroom.
