| | | | Faculty change enhances l | A major change was found in the home economics department during the 1982-83 school year. Miss Carol Socha, who was in charge of this area last year, became the new career counselor. Mrs. Linda Slaggert and Mrs. Pat Seeleythen assumed the responsibility of the classes. Highlighting the year was the annual child J9|Xig eug Aq ojoud development Christmas party. Each student was to bring a child to school where various activities were planned for the children. The thrill of the event came when Santa Claus, alias Mr. Allan Larsen, made an appearance. Another accomplishment of the child develop- ment classes was their visit to Saginaw General Hospital. There they learned about childbirth XX and parenting. Students were given a tour of the delivery room and viewed the newborn section. Other home economics classes were also kept busy. The students engaged in cooking and sewing and learned about surviving in the real world alone.
