Gateway Offers Variety --my PM ,N y W' Kim Coppersmirh William Cate Cory Covert Cathy Davis Duane Davis Jean Davis Richard Derby Mary France Desimane Jeff Deveaux Josette Dominguez Cydnie Dooley Steven Downing , riff? 'W 1 Terri Cretsinger Jeffrey Davis Cher Dielsman Greg Dreher Many students who entered Gateways student body for the first time were very surprised to learn how many classes were offered. ln all, there were about 250 classes offered, and the variety and opportunities were immense. Students had their required classes such as Freshman English, American History, and Earth Science, but it was the electives that made the difference. There was always a class to meet every student's interest. With Vo-Tech, high school lsids could learn a basic trade that might help them later in life. There were also classes that were offered for fun along with learn- ing. Some of these classes included, art, industrial education, and home economics, Students could learn practical slsills while en- joying themselves at school, The Physical Education Department offered the widest variety of courses perhaps, They had every sport or game that you had ever heard of and even some that you hadn't. Having a variety of classes is important because it gives students a chance to choose some- thing that they like, summed up Sophoe more Laurie Graf. 1 .,,,,, jg ' f-, I' Caye Dahl Jodi Dawson Deene Dipaala Denise Dreyer MA Scott Darrah James Dee Jeff Dixan Kerry Droll Freshmen 161
