WCXUE ECONOMICS To a girl taking Home Economics, preparing to become one of tomorrow's homemakers means many hours of hard work and equally as many hours of fun. This class gives a girl the opportunity to express herself and gives her a chance to really get to know her classmates. The Home Economics Department offers five levels, of which the last three are electives. Home Economics I, II, and III are general courses, while Home Economics IV deals mainly with clothing and, Home Economics V with food and family relations.

MUSIC AND ART MARK HANSON Advanced Art JUDITH LANDBERG English Art During first hour every morning, fen students study rudiments of music. This course gives a solid foundation for anyone interested in con- tinuing music harmony in college. Over one hundred students take part in either choir or band every day during fourth hour. The majority of the period is spent on repetoire for the annual Christmas Concert, Pop Concert, Spring Concert, and district contest. This year a new class was added to the art classes. A group of about ten students is privi- leged to have an Art III course all to themselves. The major project of the year has been making tiles which have been one of the major interests on the art room walls. Other colorful projects through the year have made the art room one vast spectrum of color.
